I have asked this before on the list and didn't really get an answer.
*Why* don't we use the open source libroot.so from BeOS?
Are there any advantages or disadvantages to using libc?
I think I am a little bit of a BeOS "pure-ist" and want OpenBeOS to be
as similar as possible, and using libroot.so would help this right?
