I had a merry adventure. On a make world, I got a corrupted libc.so.2.1. Needless to say, the phrase ld.so failed became very familiar to me, very quickly. Unfortunately, libc.so.2.1 is installed with the schg option. I was unable to remove the offending library as I could not disable this option because chflags said ld.so failed. ld.so is similarly locked down. I managed to get around this by moving the directory and copying the needed libraries into the new /usr/lib. This should be avoided by making this tools static. Reasoning: If I have to use the tool to fix the library, the tool should not depend on the library.
