The reason I wanted another variable is to control the creation of a
*non-empty* ld.so.conf that would pick up other config files. The idea
is that if you wanted to add a non-standard library search path, you
could create a file in ld.so.conf.d. I didn't want to make the file
have contents unconditionally.

I assume that's already working for the existing empty ld.so.conf you get
with USE_LDCONFIG=1.

It does occur to me that I don't know whether our cross-ldconfig knows
this syntax. I'll double-check that.
