It would have been lost as part of a merge of a newer uClibc, this stuff always seemed to be a moving target and caused pain during merges. My guess, it got lost by accident and no one picked up on it as it wasn't being used. Should be easy enoug to graft in what you had working/have found to get it back working again. Someone else would have to confirm because I haven't even looked sideways at this stuff forever, but I think shared lib support is/was broken in 2.6 ? Might be why it's gone unnoticed ?
