suggested change to ldd(1) man page example

An example in the ldd(1) man page lists the ELF binaries in the current
directory which link against libc.so.6. The example works, but displays
numerous "not a dynamic ELF executable" errors if run in, say, /usr/bin. The
warnings could be avoided and the example could be improved by avoiding
statically linked files. A simple patch is attached.
