The obvious answer is here are:

* If there is a functionality not provided by you C library you should
  write a configure check like we do for many testcases already which
  is something that could most likely be then accepted upstream

* There is also some added support for skipping test compilation under
  UCLIBC, see testcases/kernel/syscalls/Makefile that skips profil
  directory if UCLIBC has been defined for build. We may add more if
  there are features not provided by the uClibc library.
