-GNU Libc uses the Name Service Switch (NSS) to configure the behavior of
-the C library for the local environment, and to configure how it reads
-system data, such as passwords and group information. BusyBox has made it
-Policy that it will never use NSS, and will never use libc calls that
-make use of NSS. This allows you to run an embedded system without the need
-for installing an /etc/nsswitch.conf file and without /lib/libnss_*
-libraries installed.
