You need elf libs and an ld.so that understands elf (ld-linux.so.*).
I found that ldd won't tell you squat without ld-linux.so.1...
scrap [/usr/emul/linux] % ./usr/bin/ldd usr/games/quake/xquake
        libm.so.5 => /lib/libm.so.5.0.0
        libXext.so.6 => /usr/X386/lib/libXext.so.6.0
        libX11.so.6 => /usr/X386/lib/libX11.so.6.0
        libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5.0.9
