ldconfig I don't like it very much

[Edward Capriolo]

Running ldconfig with no arguments is a death sentence for Free BSD. I
believe the default should be to rebuilt the hints based on the system
files. It seems like if you run ldconfig with no arguments it wipes
all the hints. Since root uses bash as a shell I can not find a way to
login and fix this. even the console has the problem

You have mail.
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libintl.so.6" not found, required
by "-bash"

Will a reboot cure this or do i have to go single user?
