It is more simple. Regarding .tczl a single unconditional ldconfig is enough after all extensions loaded and before startup scripts executed.

This is the first time someone thought of this?  What about for individual installs?

Currently during boot there is only a single call to ldconfig and/or depmod based on a flag setting via the extension's extension. The change would be based on a directory test rather than said extension.
