Well... /etc isn't missing, at least.
When I run "strace /sbin/ldconfig" on my system, I see this line:
rename("/etc/ld.so.cache~", "/etc/ld.so.cache") = 0
So, it seems that your ldconfig is generating the /etc/ld.so.cache~ file,
or at least a partial one (12288 is a suspiciously ROUND number, being
precisely 3 times 4 kilobytes). And then ... something bad happens before
it can rename it to /etc/ld.so.cache. Or finish writing it.
Are you out of disk space? Granted, I would have expected a DIFFERENT
error message in that case, but it's a thing to check.
You might consider simply copying the /usr/bin/strace file from a
different Debian system onto this one, just so you can run it.
