use LD_LIBRARY_PATH for glibc instead of calling its loader
Calling the loader fails on non ELF executables. Exec, formerly run_cmd, now takes two options: -l LD_LIBRARY_PATH, -p LD_PRELOAD. -p sets LD_PRELOAD and -l LD_LIBRARY_PATH before executing the rest of argv. glibc no longer uses cmd_prefix in favor of LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
