Almost nothing. :-)

Those libraries *are* built by glibc (and eglibc) but no application
are linked against those libs. glibc will dlopen(3) those libraries
depending on the configuration of /etc/nsswitch.conf(5).

So you need to
- manually copy /lib/libnss_*.so matching your configuration
- add a properly configured /etc/nsswitch.conf
