Interesting. I've just checked my 2.2 scratchbox, and even recompiled
to the latest ld.so, and it works fine. (It's simple to prove, since
the compatxx packages now install into /usr/lib/compat by default.)
$ uname -sr
FreeBSD 2.2-GAMMA
$ ldd /tmp/rc
/tmp/rc:
-lc.2 => /usr/lib/compat/libc.so.2.2 (0x8027000)
$ /tmp/rc
; exit
(No, LD_LIBRARY_PATH ain't set at all.)
ld.so has had a minor fix between 2.2-BETA and -GAMMA, but this
supposedly only affects libraries that are in the ld.so.hints, but
have been removed since.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
