What you can do, is move the old file to /emul/aout/etc/ld.so.conf,
where only "ldconfig" can see it (for a.out), and leave the new-style
file in /etc/ld.so.conf, for use by "ld.elf_so" (ELF). On i386, it
just has this line:

libm.so.0       machdep.fpu_present     1:libm387.so.0,libm.so.0

to pull in "libm387.so.0" conditionally on an fpu being detected at
boot time.
