Well, please remember that the startup code does memory allocation, creates the environ[] array and looks at environment variables such as LFN, copies strings to and fro, expands command-line wildcards, reads and processes the DJGPP.ENV file, etc. etc... So it's niot surprising we use so many library functions: otherwise, where would the 30KB of minimal image come from? ;-) > Some like lseek and llseek we can probably fix. Also `remove' and `_truename' caused my brows to go up. Whatever do we need those for in the startup code?
