No - resting up for a ski vacation. :^O

The minilibc was used to build the first static binaries (eg sash).
sash was the first thing we could show off last year.
Since we've had a real glibc, minilibc has withered.

Build your own static realtime, realmode application?
I'm not sure what "embedded" application parisc boxes would be good for...
but I've heard of such thing being done for dedicated NFS servers...
