--- Comment #2 from Florian Weimer <fweimer at redhat dot com> ---
Thanks for the patch. I agree that this is a useful feature.

Please note that we generally discuss patches on the mailing list:
https://sourceware.org/mailman/listinfo/libc-alpha

For a contribution of this size, we will need FSF paperwork unfortunately:
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Contribution%20checklist#FSF_copyright_Assignment

Regarding the change itself, I think the printing has to be added to ld.so
(elf/rtld.c). ldconfig is statically linked, so could get out of sync with the
dynamic loader. There can also be multiple dynamic loaders with different
search paths be installed on the same system.
