[Vineet Gupta]

perf tools build in recent kernels spews splat when cross compiling with uClibc

This is after commit 61a6445e463a31 ("tools lib: Guard the strlcpy() header with
__GLIBC__").

The problem is uClibc also defines __GLIBC__ for exported headers for
applications. So add that specific check to not trip for uClibc.
