If by the apps you mean other OpenSource apps, there's a list
of about 500+ of them I'm looking at on a weekly basis. Most
of them have a pretty long list of non-trivial dependencies

IMHO, you know more than I do at this point!
So, what's our problem :-) Is all hope lost?
Is this mess fixable? If so, how?
Well, all I can say is -- its a pity that even more resources will
be spent on proliferating gcc's bad influence on application developers.
The world sucks. I could not agree more. Propagating all this gnu stuff
is depressing, makes me wish I did something else for a living
sometimes. I sort of watch with amazement as people work on the segment
layout of their ELF files, and discuss what to inline. arg!
thanks, I think you've educated me (I'm dead serious).
