I've added kib@ to Cc list.

It doesn't seem to me that this proposed change would do something
with security? Personally I think the change is reasonable (but we
may want printf be replaced with _rtld_error in rtld.c and use
LD_UTRACE there?)

I also think that UTRACE part is not bad, but will object against the
LD_PRINT_ERROR part. FWIW, it should use rtld_printf() instead of printf(),
but this is moot point.
