freebsd security - Dec 2011 - logging _rtld errors

Are there any security reasons as to why

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=142258  ([patch] rtld(1): add
ability to log or print rtld errors)

would not have been committed to the tree ?

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?)

Cheers,
