Personally I prefer your original approach.  Sure it creates duplicate
data files (as i386 and powerpc uClibc are the same) but it follows the
buildroot precident, and allows for changing configs based on the arch
without modifying the Makefiles.

Bugger.  I wonder what the timeframe is for the next uClibc release.
