Do I have libbigloo* drivers linked incorrectly?

Lately every time I update my system I see umpteen cycles of messages
complaining about a group of files that are "not a symbolic link":
/sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libbigloosrfi27_es-3.4a.so is not a symbolic link

Each of these loops takes a noticeable amount of time -- especially on
this old 32-bit system. Thirty-two iterations of this loop add
substantially to the total update time. I see counterpart messages when
updating a 64-bit system.
When I look at all the libbigloo* files in /usr/lib, the *_u-3.4a.so
files are soft linked to *_s-3.4a.so files. There are also *_eu-3.4a.so
and *_es-3.4a.so versions of those files available for linking.
Do I have the correct links?
