Bug 77119

At least on my system, it would appear that /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 does not update during a "make installworld" any more.  The timestamps of the files would seem to place it right around the time I started to move to 5.3.

While working on a different problem, I stumbled across the fact that my /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 was out of date compared to the rest of the libs (~1.5 weeks).  Digging in to it a bit, I tried to replace it from /usr/obj/.../rtld-elf/ld-elf.so.1 by hand.

[root@new] rtld-elf# make install
chflags noschg /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1
install -s -o root -g wheel -m 555  -fschg -C -b ld-elf.so.1 /libexec
install -o root -g wheel -m 444 rtld.1.gz  /usr/share/man/man1
/usr/share/man/man1/ld-elf.so.1.1.gz -> /usr/share/man/man1/rtld.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/ld.so.1.gz -> /usr/share/man/man1/rtld.1.gz
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1 -> /libexec/ld-elf.so.1

[root@new] rtld-elf# ls -l /libexec/
total 292
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  147704 Oct 21 21:17 ld-elf.so.1
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  148312 Oct  5 19:21 ld-elf.so.1.old

Brought the machien down to single user mode, and tried it again.  Same results, no update.  Tried to copy the file with cp (after chflags noschg), and got:

[root@new] /libexec# cp /usr/obj/usr/src/libexec/rtld-elf/ld-elf.so.1 ./
cp: ./ld-elf.so.1: Text file busy

And a quick lsof shows the problem:

I had to exec /rescue/tcsh and then /rescue/cp the file before it would take.

I hope I'm not wasting someones time because of some oddity I have with my system, but I suspect this is 5.3 related with the move to a dynamic root.

Fix: 

Lots of solutions, someone will have to pick one.
