 A system without a working editor isn't fully functional.  Yes, I
know real men can write just about anything in bash, and heroes can
probably write a functional editor with a simple here document, but
adding vim to the boot build for 1.1 would be nice - it
cross-compiles OK with Joe's 2.0 patch, although in my experience it
only works like vi (so, it might need an /etc/vimrc or similar).

People are starting to convince me on this one.
 Oh, and _fully_ functional usually means a bit of cblfs (ssh or
nfs, for example).  Where should we draw the line ?
This is a tricky part, I feel any extras beyond a base temp-system, need to be outlined elsewhere. As examples, the alternative file systems I posted on the CLFS trac wiki could be the reference point for this. http://trac.cross-lfs.org/wiki/file_systems, we could probably get Justin to rename this to temp-system Addons.
