Sun Microsystems' Next Linux Move (Seeking Alpha)
Currently, there isn't a BSD C library that works with the Linux kernel.
There is uClibc, designed for embedded use (LGPL), as well as Cygnus newlib, also for embedded use (non-copylefted, BSD-like terms).
But generally if you're on a desktop, laptop, or server, you rely on GNU libc.
