How many copies of the 'id' routine are lurking in the kernel tree now?
More than one (even if compiled multiple times) is a mistake.

It really ought to be the same code as libc variant as well - no
point having to fix teh same buggy code several times.

Since there is no longer a syssrc, is it valid to assume that
anyone building the kernel will have a full source tree?
(or at least will grab enough bits to make it work?)
