Hmm, I think the only thing that will bite you in bringing in -currents libc_r are the socket.h changes that went in around Nov 24, 1999. I haven't tried it myself... YMMV Someone is working on merging -current libc_r into -stable, so perhaps if you want to hold out a little longer, it'll get done for you.
