Huh? This build failure is due to a difference between a patched
version of uClibc (available in the internal toolchain backend) and an
external uClibc toolchain. Haven't we said that we shouldn't really on
our uClibc internal toolchain having feature patches, and instead patch
the packages?

I'm sorry, but I disagree with the solution chosen here.

Best regards,

Thomas
