Hi Steve

I unfortunately do not have the time nor the skill to properly take on 
maintenence of uClibc++

While we currently are still in development test stage, the company I work 
for will be shipping a fairly considerable number of devices using uClibc++ 
so I will continue to feed back patches if and when I have them. OPAL and 
PTLib (The C++ VoIP libs we use)  make extensive use of various obscure 
corners of C++ so you will likely hear from me again soon..

PS: I have also committed my patches to OpenWRT so that they don't get lost 
in absence of a uClibc++ maintainer:
