  This really lacks some help text, even I had no idea what it meant at 
first. I guess the text from busybox can just be reused - though for 
SELinux there's obviously a different reason.

         If your CPU architecture doesn't allow for sharing text/rodata
         sections of running binaries, but allows for runtime dynamic
         libraries, this option will allow you to reduce memory footprint
         when you have many different applets running at once.

         If your CPU architecture allows for sharing text/rodata,
         having single binary is more optimal.

         Each applet will be a tiny program, dynamically linked
         against libbusybox.so.N.N.N.

         You need to have a working dynamic linker.

  That last sentence makes me think that we're missing a depends on 
!BR2_PREFER_STATIC here.

  Isn't setuid root needed anymore for /bin/login? Same for passwd, su, 
probably others...

  Icky, perhaps it's better to make an upstreamable patch that fixes the 
Makefile so it properly installs the binaries if INDIVIDUAL_BINARIES is 
selected?
