last uclibc release has been long time ago. We need newer features
especially for systemd to work.
are you seeing some issues with what we have ? and its always top of
master. We pick a master version
and then stabilize it to whatever we can. btw. uclibc master does not
move at a faster pace where it breaks often
so its ok to use it.
