 This can be closed, because what I thought were two distinct problems has
 turned out to have the same cause. So this can be considered a duplicate of
 amd64/127276.
 
 Ldd invokes the binary and in case of a nonsensical elf-brand the kernel (at
 least that is my suspect) posts a message on the terminal.
 
 The workaround is to only run ldd on FreeBSD binaries. The safe solution,
 would in my opinion, be a check weather the binary uses the FreeBSD linker,
 but this discussion can remain in amd64/127276.
