I assumed it was intended as a recovery tool if something is wrong with 
the DSO symbolic links, which is why I preserved it.  On the other hand, 
in this day and age, systems will certainly not boot if simple binaries 
like ln cannot run, and the system administrator will not be able to log 
in, so such recovery actions appear rather unrealistic without the help 
of a rescue system.

This leads to the next question: Do we still need to link ldconfig 
statically?
