Have been reading about it... I am thinking of replacing my user shell
from bash to mksh..need some more time to read up on it

For the point... bash 4.2 broke on x86-64 when I tried about a month
ago due to some bison issue and kbd broke due to some flex issue...
everything else did build fine... as for the aboriginal patches,
uClibc needed include/sys/mount changes via two patches... the ones
they did to be "up-to-date" with glibc and obviously the chmod -f from
toybox
