Thanks for your report. The problem really looks like a uClibc problem,
so I would suggest you to take the uClibc configuration file in
output/build/uclibc-<version>/.config, and sent the report to the
uClibc developers. I am also on the uClibc mailing list, so I will be
able to add additional Buildroot-specific details if requested by the
uClibc developers.
Outside of this, it is interesting to see that you are looking at the
ARM non-MMU support. Do you have an actual hardware platform? In fact,
I have been interested by looking into ARM non-MMU support in Buildroot
for a long time, but I have never found a hardware platform, or
emulated platform, to test things on. If this is something you can help
with, I'm pretty sure the ARM non-MMU support would make more
significant progress.
Thanks!
Thomas
