Well, generally whenever I import a glibc header and make some
uClibc-specific changes, I keep the original code in place and
either '#if 0/#endif' or '#ifdef __UCLIBC__/#else/#endif/' to
mark what changed.  But certainly a more formal system would help.

Of course, the header files really do need a lot of work.  We need
to remove all references to the kernel headers and we need to audit
the headers and disable any prototypes for (currently) unsupported
functions.
