[BusyBox] Uclibc libraries...

Hi Tom,

At the end of the Config file there's a variable (INSTALL_DIR) that is set to
/usr/$(TARGET_ARCH)-linux-uclibc by default. That's what controls where it
installs. The other thing is that when you use the gcc from uClibc/bin it will
make your resulting binaries point to the install directory libs, asuming you
are doing a dynamic link, so you will probably have to rebuild after you
install uClibc in the new location.
