That's the intention, yes... although there are already provisions for the possibility that it might be necessary to build separate copies. I'd hoped we wouldn't have to, but it's starting to look necessary.

Nope, not correct -- the kernel does have a set of the standard string routines, a messy bunch of inline assembler routines defined in (RH4.2) /usr/src/linux/include/linux/string.h and the files it picks up. However, the user and kernel copies of the library are probably going to have to pick up quite different sets of header files to make this all work right. Ugh.

(I experimented with just using -I/usr/src/linux/include/linux in the library compile, but that's no go for other reasons -- there are name clashes between some other standard headers, like <limits.h>, and files in there.)
