    I think the problem is, that some tools have a problem finding it...:
    ---snip---
    (3) netchild@ttyp1 % nm -D /usr/lib/libc.so | grep fpcl
    nm: /usr/lib/libc.so: No such file or directory

    (4) netchild@ttyp1 % ll /usr/lib/libc.so
    lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 19B 29 Aug 13:57 /usr/lib/libc.so@ -> ../../lib/libc.so.5

    (5) netchild@ttyp1 % ll /usr
    lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 7.0B 18 Aug 2001 /usr@ -> big/usr

    (7) netchild@ttyp1 % ll /lib/libc.so
    lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 9.0B 29 Aug 13:57 /lib/libc.so@ -> 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,
