What if it some disables CONFIG_LFS inside busybox ? In Buildroot, we have dropped the ability to disable LFS since March 2015. It was really too annoying to maintain the !LFS case, for no real benefit. So I'm completely fine with uClibc-ng dropping !LFS support upstream, since Buildroot no longer cares about this possibility.
