In -current, I've noticed that statically linked linux ELF binaries
get executed even though the linux binary loader is not installed. I
assume this is valid since the linux emul only loads and executes
a.out binaries. Can the freebsd ELF binary loader distinguish between
FreeBSD ELF and Linux ELF? Or is it a problem with the linux emulation
code. I noticed this when running the ELF version of "ldconfig"
(1.7.14) in order to sort out the symlinks in /compat/linux/lib and
make a valid ld.so.cache.
