You can try out the uclibc embedded stages here
<http://gentoo.osuosl.org/experimental/x86/embedded/stages/>
works as a glibc replacement.

Dietlibc shared libraries are very much experimental too. But using it to
compile static binaries is quite reliable in my experience.

YMMV, using dietlibc and uClibc only makes sense with embedded setups

Good luck :-)
