Hi,

   The following commit broke legacy ldconfig aout support:


1.161 Thu Dec 10 8:06:59 1998 UTC by jb 
Diffs to 1.160 

Add a test for hw.machine == i386 before trying to run ldconfig for
legacy aout support.


   The following conditional is wrong:

if [ X"`sysctl hw.machine`" = X"i386" ]; then

   and needs to read:

if [ X"`sysctl hw.machine | cut -d' ' -f2`" = X"i386" ]; then

   assuming the bruce filter doesn't mind a pipe in an 'if'
statement.


   Anyone running a -current machine doing a 'make world' every day
and still using any aout libraries will be affected by this.

Thanks!
John
