I think the problem is, that some tools have a problem finding it...:
---snip---
(3) netchild_at_ttyp1 % nm -D /usr/lib/libc.so | grep fpcl
nm: /usr/lib/libc.so: No such file or directory

(4) netchild_at_ttyp1 % ll /usr/lib/libc.so
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  19B 29 Aug 13:57 /usr/lib/libc.so_at_ -> ../../lib/libc.so.5

(5) netchild_at_ttyp1 % ll /usr 
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  7.0B 18 Aug  2001 /usr_at_ -> big/usr

(7) netchild_at_ttyp1 % ll /lib/libc.so 
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  9.0B 29 Aug 13:57 /lib/libc.so_at_ -> libc.so.5
---snip---

I think a workaround would be to use absolute symlinks (at least as an
option).

This was an update of an -current since ever system from Aug 2 src to
Aug 28 src. I just tried to recompile cdrdao.

Bye,
