Specifically, build a 32-bit /usr/bin/ldd32 on amd64 which handles 32-bit
objects. Since it is a 32-bit binary, it can fork a child process which
can dlopen() a 32-bit shared library. The current 32-bit support in ldd
can't do this because it does the dlopen() from a 64-bit process. In order
to preserve an intuitive interface for users, the ldd binary automatically
execs /usr/bin/ldd32 for 32-bit objects. The end result is that ldd on
amd64 now transparently handles 32-bit shared libraries in addition to
32-bit binaries.

Bring the style of sods.c into better conformance. Add code to
print the contents of each datum being relocated. Correct the logic
that distinguishes between programs, shared libraries, and object
files. Make the entire program "-Wall" clean.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
