I don't have it all worked out, yet. I have just been doing experiments with simpler programs first, too see what pieces of libc.a get pulled in and how big it gets, and whether a simpler function of the same name in libc-lite.a, placed before libc.a, will do the trick. At this stage, just running with a giant-sized binary for sh is an option -- just to see if it works, at all. I have no intention of modifying any of the Bourne shell source code; just linking it differently. -- Guy Shaw
