Did you chroot before you started compiling? If not, please delete the
naim directory first (to remove any stale references to the libc that
you have in your main root), then unpack the tar.bz2 again, then
chroot to /uclibc, change to the naim* directory, and finally issue:

LDFLAGS="-static" ./configure && make

(Note the setting of the LDFLAGS environment variable - this should
build it statically.) Now it should compile cleanly.

I forgot about static compiling and chrooting, which are necessary steps. 
Sorry.
