Hello,

in the configuration files in the folder extra/Configs
the DEVEL_PREFIX is used before it is assigned.

Citing from Config.m68k (or Config.i386):

------------------8<-----------------
# When using shared libraries, this path is the location where the
# shared library will be invoked.  This value will be compiled into
# every binary compiled with uClibc.
#
# BIG FAT WARNING:
# If you do not have a shared library loader with the correct name
# sitting in the directory this points to, your binaries will not run.
SHARED_LIB_LOADER_PATH=$(DEVEL_PREFIX)/lib

# DEVEL_PREFIX is the directory into which the uClibc development
# environment will be installed.   The result will look something
# like the following:
#   DEVEL_PREFIX/
#       bin/            <contains gcc, ld, etc>
#       lib/            <contains all runtime and static libs>
#       include/        <Where all the header files go>
# This value is used by the 'make install' Makefile target.  Since this
# directory is compiled into the uclibc cross compiler spoofer, you
# have to recompile if you change this value...
DEVEL_PREFIX = /usr/$(TARGET_ARCH)-linux-uclibc
----------------->8------------------

Is this done intentionally? 

Thanks 

Frieder
