I just released serd-0.5.0[1], sord-0.5.0[2], and lilv-0.5.0[3] which

all have zero dependencies except each other and the C standard library.

All work on at least GNU/Linux (Debian Testing), Mac OS X (10.6), and

Windows 7 (under MingW), but I havn't tried any cross compiling yet.
You should be able to easily get less than 100Kb.  Compiling static

libraries for 32-bit i386 with -Os I get:
16K	./sord/build/libsord-0.a

36K	./lilv/build/liblilv-0.a

28K	./serd/build/libserd-0.a
Which is 80k total.  It compresses well:
8.0K	./sord/build/libsord-0.a.zip

12K	./lilv/build/liblilv-0.a.zip

16K	./serd/build/libserd-0.a.zip
Which is 36k total.
The code is not really optimized for binary size (e.g. there are many

more functions than there could be), but this seems good enough for any

reasonable application (certainly a dramatic improvement over the

several megs of Redland or GLib, anyway).  Quite a bit of this code is

unused in a typical LV2 host (e.g. SerdWriter), so if you're building a

static app you can probably coax GCC into culling it down even

further[4]... if not, I could add a --read-only compile option to omit

the writing stuff which should save a bit more.
Let me know how it goes with the Android NDK, I havn't tried.
