I think this simply means that the corresponding MEX files don't use
directly any symbol from the libc. And since mkoctfile passed the
linker flag -Wl,--as-needed, the generated binaries are not directly
linked to the libc.

I tested one of the compiled mex file and it does not seem to be
underlinked (you can test other mex files with "ldd -r" and see if any
missing symbol is reported).

So I think you can safely ignore these errors (and add corresponding
lintian overrides).
