Why do you have to set that long 'crossprefix'?  Shouldn't just
'arm-linux-uclibc-' do?
Also, won't that request 'arm-linux-uclibc-ld' & co?  In theory it
should ...

I plan to implement 'arm-uclibc' architecture (and other *-uclibc
architectures) that will do cross-compilation with uclibc at dpkg-cross
level.  However, I can't predict when I'll have the time :).

Actually it is dpkg-shlibdeps, not dh_ wrapper. It just does not have
appropriate shlibs file. You may add information
to /etc/dpkg-shlibs.override to workaround this.
