Hi Chris,

I can't give an answer for the "official" maintainers, but in case you
noticed my unofficial testing branch and wondered why I haven't added
your contribution:

Rather than patching makefiles, there's a script that runs and adds
new applets so that everything can be in one file together. There's
some good documentation in docs/new-applet-HOWTO.txt which explains
this.
Another reason is it looks like (apologies if I'm wrong) it's some
already written programs that don't fit with the busybox design, for
example free() is called many times with no surrounding ifdefs; and a
lot of functionality may be repeated from libbb, or even just the
malloc -> xmalloc type of changes.


Thanks,
Steven
