| There seems to be a snag when a developer wants to use a routine not
| in the libc (whatever) udeb.
It seems to me like you think that the libc-udeb contains a reduced
libc. It doesn't.
| Delaying the reduction until it is time
| to actually produce a version the must fit on a floppy may make things
| a little easier and speed up development. Of couse there is a risk
| that any savings would get eaten up in rewrites if the lib can't be
| reduced enough, which is where the external tracking mechanism comes
| in so developers know when they are bloating the lib and can run it by
| the rest of the team before they get too far along (but without having
| to wait for a new reduced lib to be built and distributed.
You don't have to distribute the reduced build. It is made as part of
make initrd.
I think you are trying to solve a non-issue here. :)
