I strongly disagree.

A lot of work has been put into porting a lot of programs to kitten. 
(including that someone ported it to one program that I wrote).

Kitten is mantained, in the sense that it is complete and stable. And 
Kitten is FreeDOS optimized.

NOW, if you have some good reason to port back to the lib that you 
wrote, which will make things bigger, I thing that it should be an 
option and that the standard FeeeDOS version should not grow or be 
incompatible because of it.
