'eglibc' is a drop in replacement.  It is no where near as painful as
'uCLibc' or other library switches.  The code size is a little smaller
and 'eglibc' doesn't have every esoteric feature.

Do you have a reason not to investigate?  It is a little different, but
as you are switching tools anyways, I think this impact would be
minimal.  Changing a glibc version is most likely a bigger change
impact.

Fwiw,
