the uClibc project has only been using sanitized headers for 2.6 kernels and 
there havent been any real issues thus far for the common arches ... 
arm/mips/ppc/sh/x86 ...

Gentoo too only utilizes sanitized headers (we sanitize them ourselves) for 
native / cross toolchains and again no problems have come up (if you dont 
count bugs relating to headers that need to be sanitized :]) ... and we cover 
a bunch more arches than just embedded ones ...
