Even thought there's no strong preference for us between uClibc and
uClibc-ng the point is we've been using our GitHub uClibc repo (which
is now a "mirror" of uClibc's git with a bit of a lag in updates - we
do it manually from time to time) for all builds, i.e. we run
regression tests and use for building everything uClibc but not uClibc
-ng. And so we're pretty sure uClibc works for us.
I'm not saying that uClibc-ng is any worse, no. But for current release
cycle we'll claim support of "vanilla" uClibc.
But I believe it's a good time now to discuss a possibility to switch
to uClibc-ng for our following releases.
I'm explicitly adding Vineet in Cc who is our uClibc maintainer so he
may add his 2 cents in that discussion.
