However the uClibc library has different patches applied compared to an internal buildroot toolchain. In particular the patches I am interested in are: toolchain/uClibc/uClibc-0.9.32-fix-daylight-saving-time-handling.patch toolchain/uClibc/uClibc-0.9.32-linuxthreads-errno-fix.patch I have hacked in changes to package\crosstool-ng\crosstool-ng.mk to make them be applied, however I don't think this is a sensible long term solution. Presumably the daylight savings patch could get added to ct-ng for the next release as it has been accepted upstream. However the other one is rejected upstream and I believe ct-ng doesn't want to carry it. There are also a number of other patches in buildroot that are not in ct-ng. Going forward what is the best thing to do here? If there is any easy solution people would be happy with I'll work on a patch.
