:The new wording with the extra information is better. However, first, the way osdev uses these libs, the words "hosted" and "freestanding" do not have useful meanings -- they add confusion. The words "kernel" and "userland runtime library" have much clearer meanings, and I think these words need to be added. Second, isn't the "hosted" library the small, incomplete, subset one that is linked into the kernel? The article text has it the other way around. If I have it wrong, that just shows how confusing the terms are. ;) --[[User:Bewing|Bewing]] 15:24, 4 September 2012 (CDT)
