this isn't a problem.  not really.  

i spent about two years typing ldconfig every single time i compiled
something.  i think it tells you do do this in the make install spew.

then i learned that you only had to do this after installing new
libraries.  then i stopped running ldconfig after every new build.  then
i ran into problems.  the very next thing is to get embarrassed by the
developers and this seems to help kick in the understanding of when you
are adding new libraries and not.

it is my experience that it is easier to embarrass people on the irc.
