-There have been two major changes in uclibc-ng which need special
-attention when upgrading. Version 1.0.19 restructured the breakout
-libraries, libcrypt.so.0, libdl.so.0, and friends.  The functions in
-those libraries are now included in libuClibc-0.1.0.19.so.  Version
-1.0.21 and above removed libc support for obstack, expecting packages to
-use their bundled GNU lib code. Both changes require special upgrade
-procedures which we outline below: 
-
-0. Because of changes in the library structure in previous versions,
-make sure you are working with 1.0.19 and rebuild world using
-
-    emerge -e @world
-
-This will make sure all the executables link directly against libc.so.0
-(as reported by `readelf -d`) rather than via symlinks like libdl.so.0
--> libc.so.0.  Then upgrade from 1.0.19 to 1.0.20 without symlink-compat:
-
-    USE="-symlink-compat" emerge =sys-libs/uclibc-ng-1.0.20
-
-1. Get rid of the obstack.h header since it's used by configure scripts
-to look for function prototypes and macros.
-
-    mv /usr/include/obstack.h ~
-
-2. We also need to force the use of any bundled gnu lib code.  We can do
-this by removing the definition of _GNU_OBSTACK_INTERFACE_VERSION from
-gnu-version.h
-
-    cp /usr/include/gnu-versions.h ~
-    sed -i -e '/#define _GNU_OBSTACK/d' /usr/include/gnu-versions.h
-
-3. We need to tell stdio.h that __UCLIBC_HAS_OBSTACK__ is false.  We do
-this via the uClibc_config.h file.
-
-    cp /usr/include/bits/uClibc_config.h ~
-    sed -i -e '/__UCLIBC_HAS_OBSTACK__/ s/1/0/' \
-     /usr/include/bits/uClibc_config.h
-
-4. To be safe, you may want to back up your entire /lib directory so
-you can fall back should something go wrong:
-
-    cp -a /lib /lib.bak
-
-5. Now when we rebuild @world, all packages will use their bundled
-obstack code rather than depending on libc to provide it.
-
-    ac_cv_func_obstack_vprintf=no emerge --keep-going --exclude \
-     sys-libs/uclibc-ng -e @world
-
-6. Finally update uclibc-ng to the latest
-
-    emerge =sys-libs/uclibc-ng-1.0.22
-
-7. For good measure, rebuild the entire system
-
-    emerge —e @world
-
