in libc.so.6

It looks like mklibs got me or is that dropbear not linking to all the
libs explicitly such
that the elf file header doesn't have the right libs.

I guess if I had used ulibc this would not be an issue.

Is there a way to have dropbear use something like that of busybox for password
access to remove this dependency or is that asking too much?
