It really depends on which glibc the profiles have been using:

 - >= 2.5 -> force --hash-style=gnu, reduced link time and smaller
files;
 - < 2.5 -> force --hash-style=sysv, as above, but gnu would make lose
the hash entirely.

Somebody who works with uclibc should let us know which one of the two
is actually supported by which uclibc.
