Gentoo actively builds the latest openssl on uClibc, so it's not clear to me if any changes are needed at all. i know hat openssl on nommu/Linux (which uses uClibc) has troubles with some apps because they use fork(), but that patch doesn't help there. -mike signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Re: [openssl.org #1979] Add uClibc support
I’m confused: uClibc isn’t a platform, it’s a run-time environment (i.e. the C library).
