Okay I hope i got this right this time. Unfortunately being a binary file, it 
will fail if the endianness of the sysroot's hints file is different from the 
endianness of the building system.

By the way, seems to me that ld.so.conf is ignored on GNU/Linux, at least if I 
try to link to a non-existant libfoo, ld --verbose shows me only checks 
inside the paths defined at compile time (SEARCH_DIRS) and the ones given by 
command line (-L...), not for the paths defined in ld.so.conf (while it shows 
them on FreeBSD with this patch).
