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.
