Ok Lucas, then i will try to make patches that can be aplied to the
standard recipe but only usseful when dietlibc is used.
I think that Compile can use directly a standard recipe using dietlibc
with this command:

Compile Device-Mapper -n Diet-Device-Mapper -c "CC=\"diet gcc
-D_BSD_SOURCE\""

I think there not sould be problems, becouse there are only a few
recipes with has sense to make with dietlibc.

Greets.
