Hmm, good question.  The FreeBSD aaccli that I provided way back when
was statically linked against FreeBSD 4.4 libraries, so I guess that our
i386 emulation would need to be able to handle that (and specifically
some of the quirks in how libc_r worked back then).

For fun, you might try compiling a kernel with COMPAT_LINUX32 and
AAC_COMPAT_LINUX and running the linux aaccli under it.  I can't think
of a reason why it wouldn't work, but I haven't tried it myself.
