IMHO this is not a general tool, it is very specific to libc build
process. And there is often alread a /sbin/sln that is different. I
don't think that it should be installed.

You are right, here is a patch:
Fri Aug 7 10:42:23 1998 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>
* elf/Makefile (others): Add sln.
(extra-objs): Remove sln.o.
