This is a major part of why I've been trying to push integrated klibc to have all that stuff as a unified "kernel" deliverable. Unfortunately, as you know, Linus apparently rejected the concept "at least for now" at LKS last year.

With klibc this stuff could still be in one single wrapper without funny dependencies, but wouldn't have to be ported to kernel space.
