[issue3383] ctypes.util fails to find libc in some environments

[Thomas Heller]

Thomas Heller <theller at ctypes.org> added the comment:

Well, I have no idea what the standard setup on posix boxes is - should
objdump and ldconfig be on $PATH or not?

Regarding the groups in the regexp:  It is my understanding that the
parens do not matter because .group(0) is returned, which contains the
entire matching string anyway - do I overlook something?

Please note that the find_library() code was not written by myself ;-(
