I've built libstdc++ and libio (for iostreams) from gcc 2.95.3. Only needed 
to fix some headers.

I don't have common instructions on how to do it but you might want to have a 
look at the gcc 2.95.3 and uclibc 0.9.14 (work with 0.9.15) patches mentioned 
in the uClibc LFS (linux from scratch) hint avaible on

http://hints.linuxfromscratch.org/hints/uclibc-lfs.txt

Basicaly you only need to apply the part of the uClibc patch that edits 
uClibc_stdio.h (small work around), apply the gcc patches and copy the 
_G_config.h as the hint explains it.

The link to the patches is avaible in the hint.

I've only tested this on x86 and the way my hint does things but I hope it'll 
help anyway.

Good luck.
