I replaced onboard i810 with something easier to use. Lee could copy over 
zgv-uclibc and libvga*.so and the uclibc libc, libm, and ld-linux from 
that disk to BL3 to use zgv there.  It worked for me when I wanted to try 
the newer version in BLe.  But those libraries then won't work with libc5 
gs from SW4.0.  So I put back the older libvga*.so libraries.

Were you unable to compile with uclibc?
