In this day and age, the value of C standard library is approaching zero. Is is basically an unfirm looping trajectory of CS thought left over 50 years. That amount of code can be recreated pretty quick today. So why bother. Unless it is a syscall or somehow specially treated by the compiler (memcpy etc), there is no special value in it.
