The lack of bash doesn't mean the lack of libc. N900, N9, and Jolla all have proper libc, unlike Android. The choice of busybox only affects you if you want to do shell scripts on the N900.

The same as Mer. You can install the whole toolchain from the mer-tools repository.

The N900 was released in late 2009, almost 2010.
