I don't follow "only the libc". If you mean "I am building a system and most of it is not from NetBSD but I am using NetBSD libc", then: The license is more or less per file/system and thus if you include a file you have to follow the license. A straightforward reading is that when you distribute a binary that you must include in accompanying documentation a copy of the license. It follows that distributing binaries without any documentation is not permitted.
