I don't see the problem.  The init_array and fini_array are available both 
via the magic linker symbols and via the ELF DT_INIT_ARRAY and 
DT_FINI_ARRAY.  In a static binary, the first mechanism is used.  In a 
dynamic binary, __uClibc_main is in libc.so which is linked against ld.so 
and gets the _dl_app_*_array functions from there.
