Maybe, but not in very near future. I still haven't got the device and 
when I get it I will try something easier first or something more 
interesting or practical. I was mainly interested if someone else was 
already thinking about this or not.

shipping maemo binaries from 3rd parties based on glibc it is not very 
practical to change such core part of system.
