possible AT_PLATFORMs?


I just noticed that ldconfig doesn't handle AT_PLATFORM correctly,
e.g. on my system /lib/i686 is not checked by ldconfig - but this is
done by ld.so:
01300:   search path=/lib/i686/mmx:/lib/i686:/lib/mmx:/lib:/usr/lib/i686/mmx:/usr/lib/i686:/usr/lib/mmx:/usr/lib                (system search path)
01300:    trying file=/lib/i686/mmx/libc.so.6
01300:    trying file=/lib/i686/libc.so.6
01300:    trying file=/lib/mmx/libc.so.6
01300:    trying file=/lib/libc.so.6

LD_SHOW_AUXV gives you the platform:
$ LD_SHOW_AUXV=1 ls
AT_PHDR:     0x8048034
AT_PHNUM:    6
AT_PAGESZ:   4096
AT_BASE:     0x40000000
AT_ENTRY:    0x80490e0
AT_UID:      0
AT_EUID:     0
AT_GID:      0
AT_EGID:     0
AT_HWCAP:    fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 22 mmx osfxsr 30 amd3d
AT_PLATFORM: i686

Can the port maintainers please send me all possible AT_PLATFORM
strings for their ports?  I'd like to fix ldconfig to properly
handle AT_PLATFORM.

Thanks,
Andreas
