Hello Joel and Chris,

thanks for the feedback. Like I said in my initial mail, I'll still need
to remove INET6 from some places for the minimal version. I already
found some places where I missed it. So I'll wait till I have posted
that v2 before I push the patches.

Yes. I described my intention for the minimal version in the comment at
the top of the buildset file:

   #
   # This configuration has the target to provide the smallest possible
libbsd
   # during link time. It should disable everything that can be disabled
without
   # loosing basic functionality. As a target, it should once only
provide the
   # following functions:
   #
   # - basic IPv4 only networking
   # - basic USB support
   # - all device drivers that don't increase the application size
without being
   #   explicitly linked in
   #
   # ATTENTION: This configuration will loose functionality in the
future as soon
   # as it is possible to disable the functionality.
   #

Basically I think that the target version of this minimal buildset will
have about the features of the legacy stack - maybe a little less. But
it will need time to remove more features. So removing PF will have to
wait for another patch.

Best regards

Christian
