Ok, that looks good atleast.

If you don't have softfloat enabled (you should), then you'll need to
ensure that you have fpu emulation enabled in the kernel.

And no, you normally don't have to mess with the uclibc config.

Remember that you need to do a clean rebuild after changing
soft/hardfloat (rm -rf output; make if you are using git, rm -rf
*build_*; make if you are using the release).
