In Ingo's reasoning, the next step would be to rewrite glibc and put it into the kernel tree, because we end up adding syscalls so adding them to the in-kernel libc with the same commit would be a lot easier and cleaner.

That actually makes a ton of sense. One immediate win would be that klibc can be tuned to the kernel it ships with (the dynamic loader will pick the correct object), so less #ifdef trees. Another would be to make klibc the formal kernel interface, which allows us to reimplement an older interface in terms of the one that supercedes it.
