Hmm ... Im not sure if this is so fishy. When ldconfig returns Can't
stat, that means the dir/file is mentioned in the config for ldconfig
(that is in one of the files in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/) but is not in the
system. When it returnes Cannot stat then the file is usually a
symlink to a file that no longer exists. But that these dirs are not
there (specially /usr/lib/i486-linux-gnu and
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu) could be a problem, not familiar with the
64 bit architecture to know if they should be there or not.

Good luck and file bug reports if you find something out of this.
