On a x86 system I have earlier (0.9.12) had trouble with this on Qt>=3
because the qmake tool did not work as expected when built with
uClibc(0.9.12). though using a qmake built with glibc the rest of the
library built OK. So it seems that at either uClibc and/or Qt 3 have
improoved to solve this issue.

With Qt2 I've got my static linked app down under 1MB using minimal
configuration.

I have succesfully compiled Qt2 with uClibc 0.9.12 with only the small
modification of commenting out lines that invoked the global function
'setlocale'. Qt 3 does not use this function, so that's not an issue
for Qt3.

I am using Qt2 with uClibc(0.9.12) and I experience no problems.

Trolltech support would probably like to know, hence the Cc to them.
