ok but what's up with this issue?

If the compiler find this library nsl will be included while compiling the
source. But i use the toolchain and i think the i386-uclibc-gcc should
only search libraries in the staging directory and not in the whole
system. if i run "i386-uclibc-gcc --print-search-dirs" it show /lib,
/usr/lib and so on.
if i run the same command with to prog in build/gcc-final it show the
right directories, why ?
