rumprun in userspace has a somewhat complicated model for avoiding namespace collision between host libc and netbsd libc. I am working on a version that has a somewhat simpler model by avoiding most of host libc other than the startup code and a few things like malloc and the environment. Not having host threads in the stub makes it easier. It might be a bad idea so the simpler I can make the initial version the better (it has a working title of frankenlibc)...
