You should just remove support for any uClibc version that isn't the
latest. Even 0.9.33.2 is 3 years old.

Unless you want to support people who try to build a toolchain that has
a C library matching the one they have on their existing platform
(router, etc.). But it's a rather clunky exercise IMO.

Best regards,
