Nice detective work.  So the next question is: why does klibc-utils on
ia64 provide /usr/lib/klibc/bin/sh instead of sh.shared like other
architectures?

I'd also be interested to hear how /usr/lib/klibc/bin/sh behaves in
general: e.g., could you try

	ldd /usr/lib/klibc/bin/sh
	/usr/lib/klibc/bin/sh -c 'echo hi'

?
