I think I've seen something similar somewhere so I guess this may not be really related to sphinx but setuptools or something like this. I can't investigate it closer right now, sorry.

# grep ldconfig -R /usr/lib64/python3.3/
Binary file /usr/lib64/python3.3/ctypes/__pycache__/util.cpython-33.pyo matches
Binary file /usr/lib64/python3.3/ctypes/__pycache__/util.cpython-33.pyc matches
/usr/lib64/python3.3/ctypes/util.py:    # Andreas Degert's find functions, using gcc, /sbin/ldconfig, objdump
/usr/lib64/python3.3/ctypes/util.py:            with contextlib.closing(os.popen('/sbin/ldconfig -r 2>/dev/null')) as f:
/usr/lib64/python3.3/ctypes/util.py:        def _findSoname_ldconfig(name):
/usr/lib64/python3.3/ctypes/util.py:            # XXX assuming GLIBC's ldconfig (with option -p)
/usr/lib64/python3.3/ctypes/util.py:                with subprocess.Popen(['/sbin/ldconfig', '-p'],
/usr/lib64/python3.3/ctypes/util.py:            return _findSoname_ldconfig(name) or _get_soname(_findLib_gcc(name))

So it seems that Python itself must be buggy.
