Yes, see uclibc-0033-rpmatch-backport-function.patch in Buildroot.

The ideal solution would be to have a configure.ac test for rpmatch,
but unfortunately, mtd-utils do not use autoconf.

I believe we said that we should not include patches that add
functionality to uClibc, but it creates a difference between our
patched uClibc, and other toolchains that don't have the same patches
for uClibc.
