linking issues

[Andreas Ericsson]

What's the reason for linking in libmath and libnsl?

Insofar as I know no functions in either nagios or any of the cgi's use 
any advanced math and should work well without it.

libnsl is another library out of place. Perhaps it's needed by Sun and 
friends. On Linux (Fedora 3, Openwall current, Debian sarge) Nagios 
builds nicely without them, although I know Sun (and some others) have 
huge problems understanding any C-code at all without it. Perhaps -lnsl 
should be linked explicitly on those and dropped for other platforms?
