BUGS
       ldd does not work on a.out shared libraries.

       ldd  does  not  work with some extremely old a.out programs which were built before ldd support was added to the compiler releases.  If you
       use ldd on one of these programs, the program will attempt to run with argc = 0 and the results will be unpredictable.
