bingo.  a small set of tools will usually save you.  vi(1) is out
of the question because it is too complex.  init, sh, echo, cat,
ed, sed, fsck (and 'once upon a time' fsdb) should do it.

remove dynamic linking and you remove Yet Another Band-Aid.

the kernel should be able to page stuff right which should eliminate
the need for this folly.
