The problem was that in busybox 0.50 I changed the default
BusyBox compile from 'USE_SYSTEM_PWD_GRP = false' to
'USE_SYSTEM_PWD_GRP = true'. This is a sane default,
but means that glibc based systems then have to have
the nss libraries installed. For the boot floppies
we don't want that.
I will be uploading busybox 0.51 later today which will
force USE_SYSTEM_PWD_GRP=false in debian/rules for
busybox, which will fix this problem.
