You made the symlink in the /usr/compat/linux directory, yes? Mixing
up libraries from FreeBSD and Linux is not a recipe for a long and
stress free life :)

   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 You can remove this - it won't help.

ldconfig -m /the/place/with/the/libs - for future reference, but it still
won't help.

You are starting the linux emulation from /etc/rc.conf aren't you?
Try typing (as root)

# linux
then start your applications and see what happens. Linux libraries should
be kept in /usr/compat/linux and not generally symlinked into the rest of
your filesystem. The linux emulation layer transparently points the
application
to the correct place (ie /usr/compat/linux).
