I had mucked with ldconfig, saving it elsewhere and then running the real
one after a yum update, as it was very slow (at least in the past), taking
about 40 seconds for *each* run and its gets run for just about any
package that is installed.

So I put ldconfig back, re-made my initrd, and now 2.6.23.9-85.fc8 is
booting fine!

Thanks to David and Andrew for the help (on irc).
