Ok, thanks for the confirmation.

So here is my proposal:

 1/ For the 2015.05 release, we simply add exceptions to the
    autobuilder script to avoid such problematic cases.

 2/ For the 2015.08 release, we switch to uClibc-ng as the default
    uClibc version, and I rebuild all uClibc based external toolchains
    to use uClibc-ng.

What do others think?
