Title:
  ld.so.preload bad pattern substitution

Status in “eglibc” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On amd64 platform, as ld.so man page says, the pattern $LIB in
  ld.so.preload shoud be replaced by /lib for amd64 executables and
  /lib32 for x86 executables:

  "$LIB   The  string  $LIB  (or equivalently ${LIB}) in an rpath corresponds to the system libraries
                directory, which is /lib for the native architecture on FHS compliant GNU/Linux systems."

  But in Ubuntu 12.04, $LIB is substituted by "x86_64-linux-gnu"

  This is a test case:

  FIRST: Set /etc/ld.so.preload content:
  /$LIB/libMazingerPreload.so

  
  SECOND: Exec strce ls -ald .

  The following output shows the library that is trying to be loaded is
  /x86_64-linux-gnu/libMazingerPreload.so when it should be
  /lib/libMazingerPreload.so

  OUTPUT:

  ERROR: ld.so: object '/$LIB/libMazingerPreload.so' from /etc/ld.so.preload cannot be preloaded: ignored.
  execve("/bin/ls", ["ls", "-ald", "."], [/* 47 vars */]) = 0
  brk(0)                                  = 0x213c000
  access("/etc/ld.so.nohwcap", F_OK)      = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
  mmap(NULL, 8192, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7f5f19e32000
  access("/etc/ld.so.preload", R_OK)      = 0
  open("/etc/ld.so.preload", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3
  fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=28, ...}) = 0
  mmap(NULL, 28, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE, 3, 0) = 0x7f5f19e31000
  close(3)                                = 0
  readlink("/proc/self/exe", "/bin/ls", 4096) = 7
  open("/x86_64-linux-gnu/libMazingerPreload.so", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
  writev(2, [{"ERROR: ld.so: object '", 22}, {"/$LIB/libMazingerPreload.so", 27}, {"' from ", 7}, {"/etc/ld.so.preload", 18}, {" cannot be preloaded: ignored.\n", 31}], 5ERROR: ld.so: object '/$LIB/libMazingerPreload.so' from /etc/ld.so.preload cannot be preloaded: ignored.
  ) = 105
  munmap(0x7f5f19e31000, 28)              = 0
