Arnaud,
I don't get it...
You want uclibc for via eden, fully compatible x86 => size matters to you
You don't want Kdrive/TinyX => size doesn't matter anymore
When it comes to size constraints, I would understand the use of uclibc.
Why not using glibc directly then ?
Please have a look back to this mailing list's archives. I posted a few
host.def files for Xfree 4.2.0. Remove the lines regarding servers only and
kdrive. Keep the rest. It should build.
The last time I did it, few problems remained:
* some clients did not build versus the version of uclibc I used then
* xterm/rxvt had non functional keyboard (xkeysym pb): this might be fixed
Due to project constraints, I dropped it for glibc to get quickly to a
usable solution. I may give it another go in 1 or 2 weeks...
Rgds,
Christian
