Well, you can't revert it, as this will make it break elsewhere. So
please check if

#if defined(__GLIBC__) && !defined(__UCLIBC__)

suits uclibc.

Are you aware of any readily available tarball or docker image that has
a uclibc based devel env that I could grab? I'd add it to my build setup
to make sure I (and my downstreamers) don't break uclibc environments in
the future.
