Did you try the workaround that Warner suggested? I think you just need to download the -current version of the libc.so.3 compat library, for example from cvsweb at: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/src/lib/compat/compat3x.i386/libc.so.3.gz.uu?rev=1.4&content-type=text/plain When you get this file, uudecode it, gunzip it and then try it instead of the libc.so.3 that you have. Confirmation from you that this works would be very helpful. Yes, ideally everything would happen in the best order - backouts while testing solutions, PRs remaining open until the problem is fully fixed etc, but unfortunately sometimes human factors mean that it doesn't happen exactly this way. It's much more beneficial if you try to report on the success and failure of workarounds instead of just becoming frustrated.
