Ah yes.

Meanwhile, forget what I said about ld.so. :)  It's compiled with 
'-nostdlib'.  Although it does pull in a few functions from libc by 
compiling in the source.

...Hm.  Looks like that's not true for those archs that use the source in 
/usr/src/libexec/ld.so.  No, wait, the Makefile there doesn't actually 
build ld.so with gcc, just the .o files.  The final link is done directly 
by ld, without including any libraries.  So, right, forget what I said 
about ld.so. :)
