Is the same true of the bionic library and and core OS libraries? How many vendors actually released closed forks of those, or required that Google restrict the availability of source code for the version of the core (C) libraries and utilities on their version of the device?

How much time did using this port from BSD take over shipping with a GPLv2/LGPLv2.1 version of libc and coreutils?

(Note, I'm explicitly referring to the Unix base operating system, not drivers, audio or video codecs or libraries or anything else, only Bionic and the core Unix utilities)
