flex does not build any as I recall.

The others have to be patched like the sys-apps/file package (ltconfig,
configure or similar) to recognize *-linux-uclibc* as a valid shared libs
supporting arch.
If you are running ./configure for a specific package, check that shared
libs are possible.
I would add these patches to elibtoolize --uclibc (for ex.), because
almost all shared libs are involved.

wonder if this could have anything to do with the xorg-x11 build problems ...

to fix packages automatically just:
inherit libtool
src_unpack() {
uclibctoolize
}
we'll look at integrating this into econf :)

didnt touch it ... requires pam (blech!)

- glib-1.2.x

these need some extra work ... the ltconfig file needs patching but seems like
it's an old version which rejects our patch ...

ok, ive added patches to handle ltconfig version 1.2.x (jpeg) and version
1.3.x (glib)

dunno if any other versions need to get handled ...
