My original check technique looking for relevant copies used:
# find / -name libutil.so.9 -print
# find / -name libcrypto.so.9 -print
# find / -name libssl.so.9 -print
The only found examples were in my non-updated chroot/jail
directory trees.
As for your example commands:
amd64:
# pkg info -b compat-libraries
pkg: No package(s) matching compat-libraries
# ldconfig -r | grep util.so.9
#
aarch64:
# pkg info -b compat-libraries
compat-libraries-20250811223518:
librustc_driver-3b46dba39a49a3ae.so
librustc_driver-8ef71439f16254ac.so
libxml2.so.2
# ldconfig -r | grep util.so.9
#
So: Also no such instance of any of the 3 old
libraries in question being found.
(I'll note, this is after having gotten things to
be using the new .so files already for the updated
contexts.)

Okay.
# man pkg-info | grep -i compat
compatibility.
compatibility.
# man pkg-delete | grep -i compat
#
The 2 pkg commands involved do not seem to document how
they are to be used with "compat-libraries" for such
things.
# grep compat /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf*
#
So: No sample command alias either.
( unknown-repository use could be another undocumented context )
