Nobody forces you to keep up with the very latest uClibc for an initial
setup, right? IMO it is not fair to state that some library -- which
has a working stable release anyway -- currently is changing rather fast
*internally*.

Is there a branch for dpkg-cross in the tla archive of dpkg, btw?
It would certainly be easier to have that in order to move forward
wrt the infrastructure i'd say.
