Great thanks, at least things started to build.

But I got uClibc bigger than on real system. This may be because of
options selected by default. (at least what is WRONG in uClibc.config is
TARGET_ARCH=none, KERNEL_SOURCE=/usr/src/linux,
KERNEL_HEADERS=/usr/src/linux/include -> this points to my i386 kernel
files).

So my question for now is how do I selectively "make clean uClibc"? As I
want to "play" with uClibc options.

And second one: how to prevent "make clean" from erasing downloads?
