+          It is useful when looking for shared objects which are required by
+          other shared objects explicitly included on the linker's command
+          line. Those objects are searched into the directories listed in
+          <filename>&lt;sysroot&gt;/etc/ld.so.conf</filename>, and failing
+          that, into the linker search path, which is right. If this switch
+          is not given, <filename>/etc/ld.so.conf</filename> on the host
+          is used, that is, programs may be linked to libraries on
+          the host, which we want to avoid.</para>
