The __bb_init_func export is to allow modules to be built with a gcov-enabled
UML.  I get a bunch of undefines in the module links when I get rid of it.

This is probably being too intimate with libc, and yours probably doesn't have
__bb_init_func.

Try the patch below and see if it helps.  Modules won't work, but you should
get a working UML.
