Busybox Update Problem

I am working with the cirrus EP9301 ARM CPU. The current environment
they supply uses Busybox 1.1.3. I decided to upgrade to 1.11.2. So I
rebuilt it with all the configuration options I wanted, but ran into a
problem. If I include -msoft-float in the compile it hangs at the
following point. Note debug mode on init is turned on.
init started: BusyBox v1.11.2 (2008-09-22 16:26:05 CDT)
command='/etc/rc.sysinit' action=1 tty='/dev/null'
command='-/sbin/start-opie' action=2 tty='/dev/tty1'
command='-/bin/sh' action=4 tty='/dev/tty2'
command='-/bin/sh' action=2 tty='/dev/ttyAM0'
command='/bin/umount -a' action=64 tty='/dev/null'
Now if I turn off -msoft-float it boots fine but when I try to use awk
I get awk: can't resolve symbol '__fixdfsi'
I would prefer to fix it so it works with soft floats, but since I
haven't experienced any other parts of busybox failing with it off I
would be happy with either way.
My build environment includes the 2.6.20.4 kernel, uclibc 9.28.3, and
arm gcc 4.1.1
Thanks a lot for the help.
