I think a little bit about it (we need to change some ports then, since we
use "chroot $LINUXBASE .../ldconfig" currently to regenerate it).

You have to talk to Trevor for the non-default linux_base ports. But don't
expect him to answer (soon). And when he answers, don't expect a positive
answer. There are other changes in the default linux_base port which the
other linux_base ports need to, but he rejects the patches and requests the
revert the changes in the default linux infrastructure (without real
technical arguments).
