What Todd said.

Although, I must admit that I *am* considering nuking the pathname
translation side of things. For folks upgrading, we can provide a
pre-compiled compatibility ld.so which looks up a.out shared libs in
something other than /usr/lib. The i386 port has already set a precedent
for this...
