IIRC gcc does not currently work out-of-the-box with uClibc.  If you are 
using uClibc, your best bet is probably to use the Buildroot system that 
can be found at the uClibc web site.
If you are building mips kernels, it is probably a better bet to get the 
source from linux-mips.org rather than kernel.org.  Because all fixes 
for mips related things show up in linux-mips.org first.
