Bash wants to use its own version of getenv so library functions that use
it can look in the shell's variable table instead of the export
environment. To that end, configure runs a test to see whether or not
getenv() can be redefined. You probably configured bash against glibc,
for which the test succeeds.
You can either re-run configure and make sure it's using uclibc, look at
config.log to figure out why the getenv replacement test succeeded if
you're already doing that, or force the issue by editing config.cache to
set the value of `bash_cv_getenv_redef' to 0 and rerun `configure -C'.
