Replying to Moody:

In chapter 10.7.4 (Configuring the dynamic linker) there is /lib/ld-linux.so.2 named as default linker, mostly true but not on PPC systems. There it should read as /lib/ld.so.1, isn't it?

    initial v5

     1As far as I know, slackintosh is using ld.so.1.
     2Gentoo I didn't look at but I'm sure is, the slackintosh
     3mailing list mentions that most all distros are using ld.so.1.
     4
     5ld.so.1 probably existed for x86 in the real early ld days, but
     6most everything but ppc/ppc64 is using ld-linux.so.2
     7
     8There are ways to get ppc and ppc64 to use ld-linux.so.2 instead, but that isn't needed. It may change in the future that ppc and ppc64 will move to ld-linux.so.2.
     9
     10For the book, the default is ld.so.1.
     11
     12I've never encountered a ppc build, yet, that doesn't use ld.so.1.
