AFAICT they don't need it (except of course libc.so.6 and ld-linux.so.2).

Yes, even when building GIMP. Broken binutils caused that behavior.

At the moment, I'm seriously considering dropping inetutils and
replacing it with just 'ping' from iputils. As you outlined, none of
these packages are maintained (to the degree we require at least), so
it's really picking the

I know you have compiled them, but have you tested their

Ping compiled ok, but when ran gives a bus error.
