Much like -ldb, netbsd just puts the functionality in the libc[1], so you don't need the library. In fact, the library doesn't exist. [1] Actually, I might be wrong about where the functionality lives. I'm not certain about the precise implementation. But the effect is the same: remove the -ldl and it will work.
the dynamic linker is where the dl* functions actually live. libc has only stubs, the real ones become available after the ld.so fires up. .mrg.
