 Hi Felix,

 So glibc and uClibc are #including some kernel headers at some point,
if only to get SO_* definitions.
 What is your policy about #including kernel headers in the diet libc's
headers, so userland programs don't have to ?
 (My view is that a userland program should never have to #include
kernel headers directly.)

 Until recently, there was no reason to. There was nothing in there
that couldn't be done with your embutils.
 However, you might want to take a look now: you might like s6-devd.
