On the other hand I don't often use gobjects, the event loop, call-backs, or any other part of glib in many of these little utilityprograms.
The real question of course is whether everyone's "use" and "don't use" lists are similar or not.
It's a little bit academic, since splitting up the lib wouldn't be ABI-compatible, so the bar for it to be worth it is extremely high. Embedded systems can always split it up themselves in a custom way if they really care.
