Unknown at this point...I haven't had time to look into Bering-uClibc

Almost certainly, at least until I upgrade all firewall systems to hardware new enough to boot off of USB flash devices.

As I said before...the glibc used with Dachstein and Bering is getting quite dated. I'd be inclined to go with a full disto (likely a 'stripped' debian install) if I wanted to run a more recent glibc, or Bering-uClibc if I wanted to stick with something light-weight.
I'll likely wind up doing both (migrating a couple of firewalls to machines running debian, and leave everything else running Bering or Bering-uClibc).
