The maintainer of the Firebird port is aware of this problem, as mentioned in PR ports/25907 at http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=25907 As seen in the audit trail, the maintainer said the fix for this will be included in the update to the upcoming version 1.0. As a temporary workaround, it is quite safe to change the owner of the /usr/local/firebird/lib directory to root, so ldconfig picks it up.
