Here's one like that.  No musl here -- does this work Wolfgang?  Do we
think it's generous enough with space in practice that we could just
always do this for __linux__ systems without anyone noticing (ie
including glibc users)?  Should we be more specific about which LD_*
variables?  Do people not doing hacking/testing ever really set those,
eg on production servers?  This code path was once used by up to a
dozen or so OSes but they're all dead, only Linux, Solaris and macOS
left, and I don't have any reason to think they suffer from this
problem and Macs don't even follow the SysV LD_ naming convention,
hence gating on Linux.
