Yes, all very interesting but you're using a static inetd like in.xxx 
program for these tests, unless you want to argue that all programs 
executed by invsd are going to be static linked too, in which case you 
can start to vastly expand you're auditing of dietlibc to all 
functionality such a in.xxx program could use, so basicly to all 
functionality I would like to see results for resD.diet and resD.ds and 
compare those to resD.glibc

About your resident sizes results this doesn't take the shared part of 
this into the picture. Please substract the shared part (minus the 
stripped binary size) from these figures since the few basic glibc 
functions used will be resident already in any realistic Fedora test 
scenario.
