Selective compilation

[Henrique Almeida]

 Hello,

 I'm building a new libc implementation, called libposix, with a few
volunteers. We'll begin to use a test driven development approach and
we're considering GNU coreutils for our initial test case. I'd like to
know if it's possible to build only small parts of coreutils, instead
of the full package, during this initial evolution of libposix code.
Ideally, it would be good if we were able to build only a single tool
and its dependecies. Also, if that's not possible, maybe you could
point other applications that would be useful to us. I'm also afraid
that the configure script would not work with libposix in this stage.
Is it possible to point out what are the requirements for the
configure script ?
