Well, the LibC is still quite small, and the syscalls aren't really compatible with Linux. A lot of things to port, for example Vim, require system libraries such as ncurses which need syscalls that aren't in the LibC. I don't really need many #ifdefs, at least not for most things, as it's a more or less posix-based libc.
