I've played with it, it's really quite interesting.  However, it does
take a rather long time to get everything compiled.  It ends up building
gcc and glibc about twice each, but it does end up using a heavily
optimised gcc to build a heavily optimised glibc.

But, yes, it is rather interesting.

Her name was Dot.
