Here's what the man page says about it:

     For security reasons, directories which are world or group-writable or
     which are not owned by root produce warning messages and are skipped,
     unless the -i option is present.

So pass -i or fix the ownership/permissions.  Take a look at man ldconfig for 
more info...
