Hi,
I am trying to build tool chain with uclibc 0.9.32 and gcc 4.6.x for
powerpc 8540 processor. there are errors when it build libm lib. I do
not know if it a bug or there are some thing wrong in my config.

1. No one defines libm_ARCH_fpu_OUT in make files, so the files under
directory toolchain\uClibc-0.9.32\libm\powerpc\e500\fpu will nor be
build at all. then there will be a link error for unsolved functions.
2. Somehow the NOT_IN_lic is not passed to the build command line for
libm/powerpc/e500/fpu/fe_nomask.c, then the  __libc_errno  in this
files will compain.

Here is my patch to make it works. It it is a bug and I am fixing it
correctly. I will be very happy to see them in next release. :-)
