[Buildroot] undefined __aeabi_read_tp

[James Newell <jnewell@wgate.com>]

Hmmmm .. I found them defined in glibc2.5:
$findsym __aeabi_read_tp
Searching library: ./arm-926ejs-linux-gnueabi/lib/libc_nonshared.a
  Found object __aeabi_read_tp in    
library ./arm-926ejs-linux-gnueabi/lib/libc_nonshared.a
Searching library: ./arm-926ejs-linux-gnueabi/lib/libc.a
  Found object __aeabi_read_tp in
library ./arm-926ejs-linux-gnueabi/lib/libc.a

Could my uclibc be mis-configured for threading?
Thanks,
Jim
