The problem is NPTL threading support. A quick look in
libpthread/nptl/sysdeps/arm shows a number of EABI references. It seems
like NPTL on ARM is only supported with EABI.

And indeed, OABI / uClibc 0.9.32  / linuxthreads-old builds fine.

I'll adjust Buildroot so you cannot select NTPL together with OABI.

It looks pretty independent of anything Buildroot related. You are
welcome to ask them regarding non-EABI NPTL support, but I would imagine
that such an uncommon configuration has fairly low priority.

May I ask why you want to use a new C library / NPTL together with the
obsolete OABI?
