Ha, sorry (missing some context).
I build tested libunwind with uClibc-snapshot on powerpc with the master branch
to verify that it doesn't build.
Then, I switched to your series with a small modification to enable powerpc and
verify that doesn't build as for uClibc-snapshot on the same architecture.

The build error look like:
In file included from ../include/libunwind.h:15:0,
                 from ppc32/Lglobal.c:2:
../include/libunwind-ppc32.h:182:9: erreur: unknown type name ?ucontext_t?
 typedef ucontext_t unw_tdep_context_t;

So your BR2_PACKAGE_LIBUNWIND_ARCH_SUPPORTS setting is correct.

Best regards,
Romain
