Outside the FreeBSD tree? From talking to John Polstra, it only works automatically with dynamic linking. There are some makefile tricks to make it sort-of happen with static linking (see the MINUSLPAM stuff in share/mk/bsd.libnames.mk) but nothing that I know of that'll make the it work automatically. If there is a way to do it, I'd like to know how, since that would save me from modifying all the ports that use libcam.
