 ----- Forwarded message from John Baldwin <jhb@freebsd.org> -----
 
 FreeBSD binaries from various releases have been branded in different ways.  I 
 would consider it more of a user error to run ldd on a Linux binary. :)  You 
 could maybe add a "IMPLEMENTATION NOTES" section to the manpage that explains 
 how it works and why it will execute any binary using a different runtime 
 linker.
