I really think we should install these libs into /usr as we have always done when these type of bits lived in /usr/src. Our own FreeBSD compat libs shouldn't be less part of the base system than other ABI bits such as the Linux and OSF/1 compat bits that live in /usr/compat. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org)
