Hello again!
I would like to make public the answer given to me by Ron Steele to fix
the problem with "emacs" and "xemacs" in FreeBSD 2.1.6.
Thanks Ron!

For emacs make a soft link (man ln for help) between libgcc.so.261.0 and
libc.so.<whatever version>
Xemacs that is in the packages is linked with Motif (libXm), which is a
commercial product. Fortunately, you don't have to buy Motif. There
is
a free clone called lesstif that is in the incoming directory on
freebsd.cdrom.com. You need to grab lesstif, pkg_add it and make a soft
link from libXm.so.2.0 to the lesstif library. Works great.
