<P>If anyone has any suggestions (or better, patches) for these, please
let me know.

<LI>Distribute a copy of libc-lite.so with Yard.  Libc.so has become so
large (700K+) even after stripping that this has become desirable again.  I
don't know how to create libc-lite, though I've scanned the ELF-Howto and
the libc source code.  Is this no longer possible with ELF?  From the libc
source code it looks as if the ability has been stripped out, leaving
nothing but a few stubs in the Makefiles.

<P> An alternative to libc-lite is to dynamically create a rescue libc.so
by extracting symbols from the binaries.

<LI>Implement the base+extra option for $disk_set.
This would probably require extensive hacking.
