  this is weird.  okay, so prelink correctly renames the prelink
  mktemp'ed file to the original.  then it does a stat, which returns
  properly, _then_ it segfaults.  I peeked a quick peek at the source
  code, but I'm too tired to dig up anything overly useful from C.  it
  does however look very buggy.  :-/

  but it does work fine if you do

prelink -v /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.1/libstdc++.so.5.0.2

  right?
