Patch applied.  Thanks!

I've amended with the following minor fixes:

This triggered a warning:

$ make lint build check
LINT (mandoc)	.tmp/man/man8/ld.so.8.lint-man.mandoc.touch
mandoc: man8/ld.so.8:241:27: STYLE: unterminated quoted argument
make: *** [share/mk/lint/man/man.mk:32: .tmp/man/man8/ld.so.8.lint-man.mandoc.touch] Error 1

With the fix from above it vanished.

Here are the applied patches:
