In Nov 2019, I was unable to compile openbsd-netcat on a
uclibc-ng-1.0.32 based system. Note: /I don't really write C and I
don't know what I'm doing/ but the following patch allowed me to compile
openbsd-netcat and run it. I just pulled the bit from glibc (mostly
verbatim iirc) and added corresponding config parameter. Hopefully it
will be useful even if incompetent.
I've been using openbsd-netcat with uclibc-ng 1.0.32 and 1.0.33 from
2019-11 to 2020-06 (now) on regular basis, and openbsd-netcat seems to
work fine.

+/* (From RFC1521 and draft-ietf-dnssec-secext-03.txt)
+ The following encoding technique is taken from RFC 1521 by Borenstein
+ and Freed. It is reproduced here in a slightly edited form for
+ convenience.
+
+ A 65-character subset of US-ASCII is used, enabling 6 bits to be
+ represented per printable character. (The extra 65th character, "=",
+ is used to signify a special processing function.)
+
+ The encoding process represents 24-bit groups of input bits as output
+ strings of 4 encoded characters. Proceeding from left to right, a
+ 24-bit input group is formed by concatenating 3 8-bit input groups.
+ These 24 bits are then treated as 4 concatenated 6-bit groups, each
+ of which is translated into a single digit in the base64 alphabet.
+
+ Each 6-bit group is used as an index into an array of 64 printable
+ characters. The character referenced by the index is placed in the
+ output string.
+
+ Table 1: The Base64 Alphabet
+
+ Value Encoding Value Encoding Value Encoding Value Encoding

+ 1 B 18 S 35 j 52 0
+ 2 C 19 T 36 k 53 1
+ 3 D 20 U 37 l 54 2

+
+ Special processing is performed if fewer than 24 bits are available
+ at the end of the data being encoded. A full encoding quantum is
+ always completed at the end of a quantity. When fewer than 24 input
+ bits are available in an input group, zero bits are added (on the
+ right) to form an integral number of 6-bit groups. Padding at the
+ end of the data is performed using the '=' character.
+
+ Since all base64 input is an integral number of octets, only the
+ -------------------------------------------------
+ following cases can arise:
+
+ (1) the final quantum of encoding input is an integral
+ multiple of 24 bits; here, the final unit of encoded
+ output will be an integral multiple of 4 characters
+ with no "=" padding,
+ (2) the final quantum of encoding input is exactly 8 bits;
+ here, the final unit of encoded output will be two
+ characters followed by two "=" padding characters, or
+ (3) the final quantum of encoding input is exactly 16 bits;
+ here, the final unit of encoded output will be three
+ characters followed by one "=" padding character.
