Run check-localpltk/textrel/execstack over ld.so.
For maximum paranoia we run ld.so through the normal set
of tests for all of the shared libraries. This includes
running ld.so through check-localplt, check-textrel, and
check-execstack. While none of these should trigger any
failures given the way ld.so is built, it might possibly
fail if a developer does something wrong. This paranoia
was triggered by a discussion over the use of __strcpy
vs. strcpy [1] and if the symbol could leak and use the
libc.so version.

The check-localplt test fails right away because localplt.data
needs updating for all arches. By default we add 6 new symbols:
__tls_get_addr, __libc_memalign, malloc, calloc, realloc and
free. Other machines like i386, power, and s390 require some
different symbol sets e.g. ___tls_get_addr vs. __tls_get_addr
for i386.
