Subject: [PATCH 1/1] ldso: continue searching if wrong architecture is found first
When LD_LIBRARY_PATH is being used, the shared library loader may end up
finding a shared library with the correct name but from a wrong
architecture. This primarily happens when a 32-bit / 64-bit mismatch
occurs.
Rather than giving up immediately and aborting, the shared library
loader should continue to look in all known locations for a matching
library that may work.
