I have changed the xm-test/ramdisk/Makefile.am to
look like this now. With this only x86-64 so far gets its own config for
the uClibc.

-            
    cp configs/uClibc $(BR_SRC)/toolchain/uClibc/uClibc.config
+                
if [ $(BR_ARCH) == "x86_64" ]; then        
              \
+                
                 cp
configs/uClibc-$(BR_ARCH)              
       \
+                
                 
               
$(BR_SRC)/toolchain/uClibc/uClibc.config; \
+                
else                    
                     
           \
+                
                 cp
configs/uClibc                
                \
+                
                 
               
$(BR_SRC)/toolchain/uClibc/uClibc.config; \
+                
fi

Is this better?

I had encountered this error here:

And thanks on the hint on how to patch hping2. It
works now - at least for x86-64.
