[Bug libc/516] New: dlopen() error message could be improved when loading different elf class

When a ppc application calls dlopen() on a ppc64 DL or vice versa the subsequent
call to dlerror() gives
"cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
In a similar situation on a Solaris machine the error is one of
"wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32"
"wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64"
Can the glibc dlopen()/dlerror() be changes to give an more helpful message?
