Well, most of the functions, macros etc in string.h don't need external stuff
(ie system calls), so you sholud be able to just link them in. Be aware that
numeric conversion calls may need various math calls as well, some of which
can't directly be used in kernel space. You may have to provide an occasional
kernel version of such calls with the "nice" error messages removed or ported.
