[issue1048] create symlink "nslookup -> busybox"

Hi,

sorry for the delay, we just discussed this issue during out bug squashing party.

We've different opinions regarding that feature request:

a) symlinks inside /usr/busybox and then adding /usr/busybox to $PATH
b) no symlinks to busybox features at all

I'm in favor of b) since I don't want to support limited busybox functions hidden behind names of well known 
tools. Assuming that we really want to go (read: you can convince me :)) with a) then I'd like to see this 
integrated in upstream or at least part of the official Debian package instead of inventing it as Grml-only 
feature.

We're also redesigning our ISO flavors those days, so from my POV it's a won't fix.

Please provide feedback.

regards,
