Absolutely ACK. Especially since "embedded systems" nowadays may come with integrated (net-)snmp agents, a web server+CGI scripts or some pseudo-shell for configuration, image download via tftp/ftp/http/ [xyz]modem, etc. Then you want to use a MMU and try to convince product mgmt/whoever to get a MMU on the device.
