I prefer a configure option that would add the execution of ldconfig to make
install. I also don't like that ldconfig is run regardless of my running as
non-root. If we don't want to break functionality for those who are used to
this behavior, the I'd go for enabling ldconfig run by default, unless a
--disable-FOO option was invoked.
