The fact that ld{-elf}.so{.1} can't find the libraries is because it isn't
looking in the directory in which the libraries are stored. Set
LD_LIBRARY_PATH appropriately. NOTE: LD_LIBRARY_PATH applies to both Linux
and FreeBSD binaries, so use it with care. The safest way to use it, is to
make a Xinvest script which sets it just before starting the actual binary
(like Netscape).
