  Log:
  Adjust recognize-shared-libraries regex to avoid matching symlinks to
  shared libraries.
  
  This fixes a problem which resulted in 6.x->7.x upgrades having the
  /usr/lib/libpthread.so -> libthr.so symlink missing; what happened was
  that the old libpthread.so symlink pointed to /lib/libpthread.so.2 --
  which matched the "/lib/*\.so\.[0-9]+" regex -- but the new symlink
  didn't, so FreeBSD Update got confused and deleted the symlink as part
  of its "remove old shared libraries" step.
  
  To recreate the symlink (which I understand is necessary for ports like
  KDE to build) on a 7.x system which FreeBSD Update upgraded from 6.x:
  # ln -s libthr.so /usr/lib/libpthread.so
