libexec/rtld-elf Makefile
Log:
When installing the dynamic linker, save the previous version in
"ld-elf.so.1.old". The dynamic linker is a critical component of
the system, and it is difficult to recover if it is damaged and
there isn't a working backup available. For instance, parts of
the toolchain such as the assembler are dynamically linked, making
it impossible to build a new dynamic linker if the installed one
doesn't work.
