With a C library which does not provide fenv.h, it won't work at runtime:
Crash after an "import numpy" on python.
Since numpy v1.16.0:
"Alpine Linux (and other musl c library distros) support
We now default to use fenv.h for floating point status error reporting.
Previously we had a broken default that sometimes would not report
underflow, overflow, and invalid floating point operations. Now we can
support non-glibc distrubutions like Alpine Linux as long as they ship
fenv.h."
Disable python-numpy for uClibc to avoid the runtime errors.
ARC's glibc used to have an incomplete fenv.h, but this has been fixed
since commit
be0aaaaecda5 ("toolchain: bump ARC tools to arc-2019.03
release"), so we don't need an exception for ARC.
Two patches attempted to fix the build for uclibc and glibc for ARC, but
didn't fix the runtime issue. Remove those patches.
