[Xorp-hackers] Minimal XORP IPv4 Multicast for embedded Linux?

Hi,

I'm looking for a reliable IPv4 Multicast Router implementation
suitable for an embedded Linux device.

Currently, my device runs Linux 2.6.14, with Quagga as its unicast
routing engine.

Would XORP run on this sort of system?

To avoid using too much space, can I choose a minimal subset of the
XORP modules to install?
I only want IPv4 multicast routing and nothing else ie. no OSPF, no RIP.

Would I have any interworking problems between XORP Multicast Routing
and Quagga running OSPF/RIP?

Currently, my Quagga implementation uses the uClibc mini C libraries.
I believe XORP is in C++. Can XORP be compiled against a small version
of the C++ libraries?

Cheers,
Daniel
