Sorry, but I did not expect random crap called something.so to work
properly, -- I just expected ld-linux.so *itself* not to segfault. Maybe
I'm indeed mistaken believing that program segfault is *always* bug.
Though if you guys insist ld-linux.so segfault is not a bug, I can cope
with it, I think.
