Micheal,
	I like the idea of multiple libraries...the more I think about
it, the easier it would be to compile different apps vs. uClibc (without
hacking makefiles, etc.).  One of my fears was simply the wasted space
in the hosting filesystem image.  Basically, the overhead used when
writing files to a filesystem adds up quickly, as I'm sure you are well
aware of.
	Also, I was digging through some docs. for romfs, and noticed a
little mention of read-write mode.  Not that there is one, but that
there is the possibility.  I'll probably contact the developer(s) and
inquire further on this matter.  Indeed I will keep you posted.
