+Patch WebKit because pthread_getattr_np is not implemented in uClibc
+
+Define UCLIBC_USE_PROC_SELF_MAPS etc. as a workaround for uClibc. This
+code was in the qtoipa webkit but appears to have been removed from
+more recent versions of webkit.
+
+See: http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-6551
+Credit for fix: http://www.avrfreaks.net/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&p=545066#545066
