[Users] libnsl not needed?

Hello,
why is claws-mail checking for gethostbyaddr in libnsl in the file
configure.ac? This seems rather unnecessary, since the final binary of
claws-mail does no link to libnsl if you use the linker flag
--as-needed.
Can this be removed for future builds, since we do not need to link
against more libraries then necessary ;)

Cheers
Andreas
