Seems already be fixed, see [1]...

uClibc-ng versions since v1.0.35 should be o.k.

Funnily the tar package seems to stumble over the same/similar failure ([2]):

  In file included from ./sys/random.h:40,
                   from getrandom.c:22:
  .../host/x86_64-buildroot-linux-uclibc/sysroot/usr/include/sys/random.h:27:35: error: unknown type name 'size_t'
     27 | extern int getrandom(void *__buf, size_t count, unsigned int flags)
        |                                   ^~~~~~
  .../host/x86_64-buildroot-linux-uclibc/sysroot/usr/include/sys/random.h:8:1: note: 'size_t' is defined in header '<stddef.h>'; did you forget to '#include <stddef.h>'?
      7 | #include <features.h>
    +++ |+#include <stddef.h>
      8 | 

Regards,
Peter
