I'm developer of Optware-ng, an attempt to "revive" the obsolete Optware. All three feeds currently use Buildroot 2015-02 toolchains, two of them (arm and mipsel) use uClibc 0.9.33.2 as the libc. These uClibc targets (especially mipsel) have some hard-to-debug issues that are quite possible due to uClibc-0.9.33.2 bugs (glibc target has no such problems), so I'm thinking to switch to uClibc-ng using the latest Buildroot. The question is whether Buildroot-2015-02's uClibc 0.9.33.2 and uClibc-ng 1.0.6 are compatible? Can I simply compile new toolchain and re-package the libc, or do I need to recompile the entire repos from scratch?
