>Description:

	I compiled tk4.0 and tcl7.4 with shared libraries named
	libtk4.0.so.4.0 and libtcl7.4.so.7.4. ldconfig did not
	recognize these names.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Create a shared library containing a period (\.) in the name 
	before the .so part. run ldconfig -v. The library is not mentioned
	in the ldconfig output, nor available via the hints hash table
	created by ldconfig..
>Fix:
	Improve the library name parsing mechanism in ldconfig.c
