No. It uses 1.01, which is more stable.

My guess is that there will not be one.

Maybe. I would want to apply some bugfix patches first. Do you
want to compile it? busybox is easy to compile: just download
and unpack it in the uclibc root, chroot and read the directions
in INSTALL (essentially, make menuconfig, then make and you
will get a working busybox binary). Don't forget to answer Y to
static compilation if you want to use it on BL3.

First I would need to get uclibc-dynamic working with Linux 2.2,
unless everyone wants to upgrade to the (less stable) 2.4.
mplayer might not work right with uclibc-dynamic, but I haven't
tested it yet.
