I love the idea of using libmap.conf to resolve this issue. What are the consequences of 8 not having the rtld fixes? Will they get backported as an official patch to 8.3? I think having legacy (7.4) being left behind is probably OK considering the support is nearing end, but it seems odd that we would fix up the ports tree with these new improvements and end up excluding FreeBSD 8.3 users from being able to use the x11/nvidia-driver port. I know the release process has been a hot topic, so I'm curious how this will work out in the long run.
