At least I think that I fix almost all packages that were fixable by 
simple operations (was broken due to paths trouble, or due to need of 
small makefile modification), and update some critical-looking packages 
(like e2fsprogs). There is one major broken package due to unknown 
reason (possibly - conflict with fresh uClibc) - mysql, and some 
kernel-dependent packages like hostapd that needs update. Now I trying 
to rebuild from scratch to ensure that I didn't miss anything.

Due to packages exploration, I have questions about some features that 
are currently off in kernel config, and that are needed by some packages:
1) Paging (swap) - is it really needed on such lightweight distro, and 
with current memory pricing?
2) PCMCIA - somebody use (or will use) it? I don't know how actual it is 
in such applications.

P.S. dosfstools I didn't fix because it isn't much important for 
testing, and will be replaced later by busybox (I planned to compile it 
as splitted executables with shared library for minimize memory usage 
and avoiding usage 3rd-party packages that have busybox analogues. like 
mawk, e2fsprogs, etc)
