Hmmm... Err. Yes, but as the easy way, I used buildroot's
But you can never be too cautious, so here is a patch.
What's in the patch (briefly): - preliminary, but functional and quite advanced, uClibc support - the two previous patches about silent run and program prefix - snapshot and forced download support - some cosmetics
An almost comprehensive description is given in the header of the patch. There might still be glitches, as it is still WIP here. Please report any problem, any suggestion, flames, or what ever! :-)

Won't you plan to integrate it in crosstool at some point? (I'm not speaking of 0.38, but later?)
Yes. I'm just a bit overloaded for the forseeable future. (Kids take a lot of time...)
OT: glibc What I understand from a set of posts a few days ago, glibc tends to drop so called 'embedded', or 'exotic', targets. Right? And that you still had a mitigate feeling about the future of crosstool concerning glibc. Right? So incorporating alternate C libraries would eventually be the way to go. (I'm not speaking only of uClibc, but other such as dietlibc or newlib for example.) Tell me if/where I'm wrong.
Not "the" way to go, but a very good way to go. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the glibc ports were maintained and keep working, so I'll gladly accept a patch to add support for the ports addon to glibc. - Dan
