ldd doesn't give correct information here.  The klibc binaries *are* dynamically
linked:

$ readelf -a ./result/bin/uname
  INTERP         0x0000b4 0x080480b4 0x080480b4 0x0005f 0x0005f R   0x1
      [Requesting program interpreter:

So you really do need /nix.

BTW, it's not clear to me why you can't have a /nix...
