well, uClibc & dietlibc are rather limited. *BSD libc is a viable option, as is Sun's.
Honestly though, if we're going to do something as radical as get rid of glibc, can we please do a little better? Might as well fix everything else wrong, like, oh, say BSD SOCKETS!

I'm actually at loss why things like uClibc, dietlibc,
hey BSD libc or even Solaris one, don't displace that
horrible abomination called GNU libc. My only hope is that
evolution will run its due course eventually, but it is
so painful to watch its slow pace :-(

Thanks,
Roman.
