For this BSP: Yes.

The networking user manual describes the legacy network stack. There is 
currently an effort to move the legacy stack to it's own repository. 
During that effort the manual will most likely be removed too. Hopefully 
we will find someone who starts a new manual for libbsd.

Yes. The libbsd network stack is a library and you have to link your 
application against it.
