it is quite easy, on a debian box you only need to install libklibc-dev,
pass
./configure CC=klcc --without-ncurses
cd mount
make

by the way i'm getting this warning on such a configure run:
configure: WARNING: sys/io.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: sys/io.h:     check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: sys/io.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: sys/io.h:     section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
configure: WARNING: sys/io.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result
configure: WARNING: sys/io.h: in the future, the compiler will take precedence
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to kzak@xxxxxxxxxx ##
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------ ##

lomount errors on:
lomount.c:253: error: â??versionsortâ?? undeclared (first use in this function)

hmm i see no, scandir on klibc side.

hehe seems also you got some small patches for klibc support ;)

mount in klibc-utils is far from feature complete, can't even print out
current mount status. guess it was just done q&d and thus..
size may play a role, for most purposes in initramfs it is enough for us.
