There are too many broken applications out there, it would be
impossible to fix them all, so I have no hopes on getting uClibc to
remove that define.

OTOH, that small change, albeit a bit weird, is pretty clear on
intention and effect, and would allow a lot of people to enjoy VLC on
embedded platforms.

So, is it really a big deal?
