ru> This commit fixes a breakage but also raises the following question.
ru> If we don't install headers, do we need anything except 32-bit rtld
ru> and shared libraries?  Currently, we also install .a libraries, .o
ru> objects, and some data files.

Why not install all 32 bit stuff under /compat/freebsd-i386/?

We currently use directory /usr/lib32 for 32 bit libraries,
/usr/libexec/ld-elf32.so.1 for the 32 bit rtld(8) and have no place to
keep 32-bit headers.
