The issue with uClibc is that all (or just some?) of the gcc
work isn't ready to go upstream yet.
Crosstool policy is to only apply patches which are
ready for upstream.
So I can apply at most a patch to, say, crosstool.sh, I think.
Not sure that's worth it.  (And I'm tempted to change the
way the patch is done at the moment, in that I'd
like to avoid switching from GLIBC_DIR to a generic LIBC_DIR
variable, simply because it's less of a change in the
external interface to the script.)

In other words, just update it when ptxdist needs it for now.

Thanks, though.  Hopefully I'll get NPTL support integrated
before summer's over.  And then the pressure will be off,
and I'll be able to integrate uclibc.     Sorry to be so flaky.
