I've not found answer to question why mongrel2 doesn't use ini files..

It's not so hard to generate sqlite file but it is even easier to generate ini, yaml, json or xml if you don't like particular ini format. And you can manage these files by git/svn and config loader could show you line with error if loading fails.

It's really hard to load those in C and keep the dependencies and bloat down.

There are number of json, yaml libraries for c. SQLite is portable for sure, but json, yaml parsers are usually consist of few files without any dependencies.
