Now it's indeed ldconfig... Here is the patch.

       sprintf (real_full_soname, "%s/%s", real_path, soname);
     }


It's merrily. The error was sitting silently until the release... Then
ld-2.1.97.so became ld-2.2.so, its strlen becomes 3 bytes shorter and
finito... For other names (on my system) it is stiil working without
the patch.
