The most recent image I've tested is an older Angstrom distribution. In particular, it uses an older libc6 (2.11), which makes it a little difficult to use the most recent packages (many of which require 2.12), but I have successfully installed gdb, gcc, python and other packages with careful use of opkg install --nodeps. I have not tried installing ROS in particular, but there's no fundamental reason it can't be made to work even if the out-of-the-box packages don't.
For example, here's a tutorial on NI's website that installs PostgreSQL and uses it with LabVIEW on the Linux platform:
