configure: Drop global setting of IFS (without space in it).

This was originally intended to help support filenames with spaces in
them, but this actually breaks things when someone sets a command with
a space in it, (such as CC="ccache cc").

Instead, we now only set a custom IFS when acting on the
newline-separated list of files from /sbin/ldconfig.
