I'm not sure I see a path to switching away from klibc-utils completely.
As far as I can tell, every upload of initramfs-tools ever has still
invoked ipconfig for some arguments.

Most configs can be handled by writing some shell to replace what
ipconfig does and some functionality can probably be dropped but doing
all of it doesn't sound like a lot of fun.

It would be fairly easy to invoke dhclient for the common case of a
simple dhcp request, but would it be worth it?
