Yeah, when using an OS written by a company with a grammatically incorrect
tagline, I find this to be the case as well. Things are just "different" and
those differences break builds for normal userspace code, let alone tricky
shared library builds.
I echo "d00d"'s suggestion of either installing Linux onto the machine, or
using a "Live" Linux PPC CD to get into a real UNIX environment.
Good luck.

PS: You may want to check out a non-buildroot based firmware dev environment
here <http://www.batbox.org/wrt54g-linux.html> which uses Kegel's crosstool,
here <http://www.kegel.com/crosstool/>
You may find that works on the OS that "thinks different".
