This won't help.  I have to know what the reason is.

What output is strace producing?

	* elf/dl-load.c (_dl_map_object_from_fd): Split out ELF file
	verification in open_verify.
	(open_verify): New function.  Called instead of open.  Ignores valid
	files for other architectures.
	(open_path): Call open_verify instead of open.
	(_dl_map_object): Likewise.
	Somewhat based on a patch by Don Dugger <n0ano@valinux.com>.

Look at the strace output and look with readelf at the file which it
tries to load.
