>Description:
The /etc/rc.d/ldconfig script does not properly handle ldconfig_local_dirs or ld_config_local32_dirs paths. If you try to run the script with either of these set in /etc/rc.conf (ie. ldconfig_local32_dirs=/usr/local/lib32) the screen will be filled with garbage. I believe this is due to:
if [ -n "${_files}" ]; then
ldconfig_paths="${ldconfig_paths} `cat ${_files} | sort -u`"
fi
which sets the ldconfig_paths variable to the contents of all of the library files. This variable is later echoed to the screen. Perhaps the "cat" was meant to be an "echo"?

>How-To-Repeat:
edit /etc/rc.conf. Add a line
ldconfig_local_dirs=/usr/local/lib
save the file and run
sh /etc/rc.d/ldconfig restart
repeat with ldconfig_local32_dirs on an em64_t/amd64 machine.
>Fix:
Change cat to echo? I'm not sure I understand what the script was trying to do.
