I've just uploaded a couple of uClibc builds to http://curl.haxx.se/auto/
one native and one cross-compiled. For the native build, I just set the
CC environment variable to the uClibc toolchain's gcc and gave a couple of
options to configure to stop it trying to use glibc-linked SSL and zlib
libraries. For the cross-compiled build, I did essentially the same as well
as giving the --host and --with-random options to configure.

As an aside, the native uClibc build failed test 503, in the same way as
the last NetBSD build. I don't know if I'll get a chance to look into it.
