While I  agree that McAfee's coding practice is very bad, the ldconfig
man page states that it should not follow symbolic links - the question
then, is  should ldconfig follow symbolic links in /lib ? if it should,
the man page needs to be changed.  If not, then it's still a bug even
though it shows up due to McAfee's poor coding.
