You are welcome.

We will add it if a customer needs it so much that he is willing to
help with a little funding.
Frankly: I don't think it makes much sense. In most projects we see
that it's just a political thing. It seems it's easier to save some
800 KiB of RAM footprint by switching to uLibcs (and paying heavily
for all the restrictions) than saving the same amount of memory in
tens of megabytes of application code.
My recommendation is to analyze the system first. uClibc is almost
always premature optimization.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
