Going that route is likely to be messy given the current monolithic
/etc/libmap{,32}.conf
You'd most likely want ${LOCALBASE}/etc/libmap.conf.d/* (in a similar
manner to etc/periodic, etc/rc.d and so on). Whether the code that
currently handles libmap.conf is itself extended to use this directory
structure is open for discussion. An alternate method could perhaps be
a 'genlibmap' command which takes /etc/libmap.conf and this directory
structure to create a /var/run/libmap.conf which is actually used by rtld.
Having potentially multiple ports dinking _directly_ with
/etc/libmap.conf will result in considerable foot shooting.
