Yes. That's how NOMMU support was improved. I kept TODO_config_nommu
file in the busybox tree where I documented the fullest .config
which builds on NOMMU. You can do the same: add minimal number of
WIN workarounds so that allnoconfig builds, add MAX_WIN_config
file which documents this. That would be a good start.

Then try to add, say, true and false applets... then basename, echo, etc.
