Ah, thanks for the info! So it's been exactly one year that uClibc-ng
has done its first release. Happy birthday :-)

It would be good to enable it of course, but it's the matter of a
separate patch / series. This series is solely about dropping support
for uClibc versioning, keeping only uClibc-ng. I don't like to extend
the scope of patch series between iterations, otherwise they never get
merged because they are always changing.

Best regards,

Thomas
