No, that is not possible, just as it is not possible for libc and other libraries that get reduced. Or at least, it's not possible to do reduction _solely_ on the basis of a udeb (you need the pic files). OTOH, just adding the lib in the udeb cannot do any harm I guess, except that it could result in the full library getting loaded during anna, which would be a waste of memory. I'll look at that option though. Thanks.
