Yes.  Unfortunately, I still can't get it stable. :-(

And (AFAICS) they don't try to get their changes back upstream :-(

Ah, this brings us back to a thread we have discussed a couple of months
ago:

IMHO, it would be a cleaner solution to _not_ distribute the kernels
along with uClinux-dist-XXXX.  Instead, the uc0-patches should be part
of uClinux-dist-XXXX.  With this distribution change the uc0-patches
can always be kept consistent with the uClinux-distribution.

Currently, patching back and forward is very confusing and very
error-prone, IMHO.
