Summary: ssh-keygen fails with "You don't exist" on x86_64

Initial Comment:
Invoking ssh-keygen from the busybox shell on x86_64
gives the infamous "You don't exist, go away!" error. 

A strace shows that it's failing on a getpwuid() call.
It looks like it needs the shared libraries
/lib64/libnss_* to get user information. Copying a
working /lib64/libnss_files.so.2 into boel_binaries
fixed the problem, and allowed ssh-keygen and sshd to
run correctly.

Looking at the boel_binaries sources,
make.d/boel_binaries.inc pulls in /lib64/libnss_dns*
but not any other libnss libraries. Is there a reason
we don't pull in libnss_files* as well?

I don't know much about Linux's linker and loader, so
maybe there's some linker option that would let it use
the 32-bit versions of the libraries. But adding the
64-bit versions to the tarball definitely fixes the
error message.
