System: FreeBSD knecht.neophilic.com 6.0-STABLE FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE #0: Sat Jan 7 14:01:13 PST 2006 root@newknecht.neophilic.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64

>Description:
	It appears that the system startup scripts (notably /etc/rc.d/ldconfig)
	do not run a pass over the 32-bit libraries (e.g., /usr/lib32,
	/usr/local/lib32).  As a result, 32-bit binaries immediately fail with
	"/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libc.so.4" not found,
	required by ...".

>How-To-Repeat:
	Start up the system.
	Execute a 32-bit binary.

>Fix:

	Workaround is easy: hard-code the "ldconfig -32 ..." call in
	/etc/rc.local.
	True fix is probably to replicate /etc/rc.d/ldconfig into ldconfig32
	and do a proper search there.  Or maybe extend the existing script.
