It is only when it is not used and there is a bfd-plugins directory. The hit
is one stat per plugin. Since only two implementations of the plugin
API exist (LLVM and GCC's LTO), the hit is probably not noticeable.

	* plugin.c (load_plugin): Use stat and S_ISREG instead of the d_type
	field of struct dirent.
