I'm probably going to do it this way, change the root Makefile to
build the kernel headers then uClibc, build busyboxinitramfs and then
build the rest of the kernel

I'm not sure how plausible this is now.  Everything I've read about
initramfs indicates that the kernel build system needs the initramfs
image available before the kernel is assembled, I have to check this.
