I have also seen this. In my case the problem was that I had built an
eglibc toolchain that had configured too much out (I think it was option
OPTION_EGLIBC_NIS). Busybox built fine, only login as root failed.
Never got around to debugging it as much faster just to change my
toolchain to include the necessary option.
