In the embedded system that I'm working on, I've discovered a minor
problem with the /etc/rc.d/ldconfig script. It assumes that you have
a /usr/lib/aout directory. While this is true by default, I believe
it would be better if the ldconfig script didn't assume this and
actually tested for its existance before trying to run ldconfig -aout
on it. This would allow those users who do not want any aout support
in their system to eliminate it completely w/o it generating
warnings. To that end, I've worked up this patch that I'd like to
commit and MFC after it has settled a bit. What do people here think?
Since the patch is short, I'm including it inline.
