As Glen suggested: If /tmp resides on its own partition, it could
still be intact. So mount /tmp and copy the file:
# mount /tmp
# cp /tmp/ld-elf.so.1 /libexec

I checked now. The "make" command produces ld-elf.so.1, at least
on my system. If "make install" doesn't work correctly, copy
the file manually.
# cd /usr/src/libexec/rtld-elf
# make
# cp ld-elf.so.1 /libexec
Of course, you will need to have /usr mounted if it's not on
the / partition.
