Sorry if I'm a bit impatient, but could someone with commit-access add the patch posted in this issue: http://busybox.net/bugs/view.php?id=1596
(http://bugs.uclibc.org/file_download.php?file_id=1193&type=bug)

..or alternatively tell me to use a different approach to fix this issue...

The preferred approach is to fix those packages requiring the LEGACY MACROS.

In reply to Atle Nissestad

Hi Atle,

As I remember by previous discussion on mailing list the intention is totally get rid of SUSV3_LEGACY_MACROS - that's why it is disabled by default.

As I understand correct solution is to fix those packages not to use deprecated functions. Some packages already fixed this way - search for ***SUSV3.patch in packages/ - but not all.

OK, message taken. There are still some packages that need to be fixed (like Boa). Are any of these patches sent upstream?

Unfortunately some people do not use the commonly used string "susv.*legacy" for these patches. This is inconsistent and should be fixed.

docs/README

Which says:

make UCLIBC_CONFIG_FILE=/my/uClibc.config

Yes, I know...
