Clarifying: uCLinux has been known to use old versions of uClibc and BusyBox.  
Just because they built it in August of this year doesn't mean they were 
using an up-to-date version of the package when they did so.  (They often 
heavily modify their packages, so resyncing with the upstream version can be 
a bit of a pain for them.  The downside is you wind up with this kind of 
problem, which is quite possibly fixed in the current tree of uClibc, but not 
the one uCLinux is using.)
