I copied Stephen's uclibc busybox-1.01 to a separate directory, manually 
made symlinks for expr and tail, and was able to run your script 1.sh, 
which produced many many symlinks but
rm:  unable to stat 'tmpscript'
There is still a tmpscript.

I will replace the old BL3 busybox with the new one, in BL2, while 
running BL3, make those two symlinks, then run the script in that 
directory.  Or maybe change the path to point to that directory instead of 
/bin/busybox.
