Forget the above part about XLOCALE. Correctly it is:
clean uClibc env (no glibc) built w/o locale, rebuilding uClibc w/ locale, 
binary compatibility remains, you can use the libraries instead of the 
non-locale version. If you want to add XLOCALE, (you definitely need the 
attached ldconfig patch, w/o it you can't build ldconfig, because it uses 
the installed library, not the built one) you loose binary compatibility, 
so the only option for XLOCALE is to enable it already in the toolchain.

I have also attached the patch to remove COMPLETELY_PIC, not needed and 
used, only disturbing.
