Some have suggested this.  In the case of Oxygen, it is necessary for
many utilities to have a fully functional glibc - as well as things
like libpcap, libm, libcap, libz and others.

Oxygen does, however, use a busybox statically linked with uClibc in
order to boot.

Oxygen uses date, chroot, and lsmod I think - maybe others.  busybox
was designed to be portable; it can run on MIPS and ARM and others -
m68k I think too.

asmutils only work on ix86.

Good things to look at.
