This option causes busybox shells to use busybox applets
in preference to executables in the PATH whenever possible. For
example, entering the command 'ifconfig' into the shell would cause
busybox to use the ifconfig busybox applet. Specifying the fully
qualified executable name, such as '/sbin/ifconfig' will still
execute the /sbin/ifconfig executable on the filesystem. This option
is generally used when creating a statically linked version of busybox
for use as a rescue shell, in the event that you screw up your system.
