Here is a small patch to add epoll support to uclibc.

The only thing I am not sure about is what needs to be done (if anything)
to make it work on 2.4/2.2 kernels (are the syscall numbers defined but
give errors when called or not?).

Tested on 2.6, though some other issues prevent more extensive testing at
the minute.

Mike Frysinger:
cleaned up patch and added checks to make sure that the syscall actually
exists, returning ENOSYS in cases where it doesn't.

clarify

fix typo

Update FAQ, remove references to 'toolchain' and instead emphasize
'buildroot', which can do everything 'toolchain' could do and then
some. And is actively maintained.

Remove whitespace

Patch from Paul Brook:

The Arm crt0.S contains non-PIC code for locating _init and _fini sections.
This caused problems on my uclinux system when static constructors were
enabled.

The attached patch implements a PIC version of this code.
