I am statically building an executable that uses getpwuid(); but it
always returns null.

A google search shows the problem is due to statically linking against nsswitch.

Our GLIBC port does not currently support shared libraries; is there a
way to get static linking against nsswitch working ?

It's possible to configure with --enable-static-nss, but it may
require some work to get it working again.
