No, I disagree here. The patches for uClibc are upstreamable.
Only the libtirpc patch has the comment and this is related to
features missing in uClibc and musl. (DES)

If more ltp tests should break and you want to maintain the package
please work with me and LTP people to get things working.

Compiling and running LTP with uClibc-ng is an important part of
getting missing features or bugs fixed.

It is not an option to disable the package for uClibc-ng.

This worked fine in the past, see exp10 related issues.

best regards
 Waldemar
