Not to nit pick, but a bare-ass single user system ain't coming up without
/usr/shlib/libsys_s.B.shlib on a NeXT, init itself uses the shared library,
not to mention sh and everything else. Static linking? whats that? :-/ :)

I've seen error = 83 too many times forgetting to put the shared library on
when creating a minimal (very minimal) system...

la la la,
