The blkid library is now much more efficiently handling devicemapper
devices, mainly by no longer using the devicemapper library. This can
speed up access for systems with a large number of device mapper

No, dietlibc is only used when building e2fsck.static, to further
shrink the size of the generated binary. The udeb's don't use
e2fsck.static at all; it's only used for the e2fsck-static package.
