well, 
since it is announce week :)))

I made a small patch to mdadm to build a subset of mdadm with diet-libc,
for use in initrds. (it is 44k statically linked)

I cannot rebuild whole mdadm with dietlibc due to dietlibc not
understanding non option arguments beetween option (optarg starting
with "-")

to build use:
diet gcc -DCONFFILE="\"/etc/mdadm.conf\"" -o mdassemble \
        mdassemble.c Assemble.c config.c dlink.c util.c

mdassemble will just scan /etc/mdadm.conf and try to assemble everything
it finds like running "mdadm -A -s".

regards,
L.
