1. A compiler wrapper for uClibc This package includes utilities that function as a toolchain for compiling with uClibc instead of the native libc. The utilities have names such as powerpc-uclibc-gcc (depending on the architecture), and should behave identically to the base utilities, except that they use headers and libraries provided in the libuclibc-dev package. Most utilities are symbolic links to the correct underlying utility, although gcc and ld are implemented as wrapper binaries that call gcc and ld with the necessary arguments and command line options.
