On Debian "Squeeze" mipsel (using Marco's suggestion):

$ ldd `which gcc`
         libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x2aab0000)
         /lib/ld.so.1 (0x55550000)

$ ls -l /lib/ld.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 May 13 11:32 /lib/ld.so.1 -> ld-2.11.2.so

I don't know whether the symlink is resolved during linkage or at load 
time. I've certainly found a case on Solaris where the former applied 
for system libraries.
