My company, IDEXX Laboratories, uses Busybox in two products (Catalyst Dx and 
Snapshot Dx).
We're very happy with it, thanks for making such high-quality software!
If I had known busybox developers were interested in this information, I'd have 
posted it when we shipped.

The board is the Applied Data Systems Sphere (an ARM processor, specifically 
Cirrus EP9315).
Libc is 2.3.5, kernel is 2.6.17.9 with Applied Data Systems and in-house 
patches.

Busybox v1.1.3

We have this one-line patch to adjust command line options for udhcpc:

diff -u busybox-1.1.3/networking/ifupdown.c

Attached.

Thanks again.
