I should probably have said that this wouldn't work with uClibc. This
is due to the fact that uClibc is not a normal Buildroot package that
relies on the common infrastructure. It's a very special component,
built by its own Makefile.

However, we have an option to build an uClibc snapshot tarball. If you
just tell Buildroot to do this, it will grab the latest daily tarball
of uClibc. You can also tell Buildroot to select an arbitrary tarball,
by date.

Regards,

Thomas
