Hi Erik,

Thanks for your help, I have updated the uClibc directory.
But now I have a problem with compiling abi-note.S which also resides in
uClinux-dist/lib/uClibc/libc/misc/internals
The assembler doesn't like the following line:

    .section ".note.ABI-tag", "a"

Do you know how I can solve this problem?

Kind regards,

Maurice Maissan
