 Hi,

 I think that adding the support for eglibc/glibc, OpenWRT will become a
 wide used build tool.
 Many peopole is interested to have a -gnu compatible embedded building
 system to cover rojects from router firmware to generic applications.

 I propose these patches that add a support for eglibc with the following
 limitations:
   - I tested only PowerPC targets ->  other targets should use the "ports"
 plug-in
   - basefiles package should be updated in order to copy the correct files
 into the rootfs.

 The patches are available here:
 http://repo.or.cz/w/openwrt_comio.git?a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/multi-libc

 Best regards.
