I guess what I'm saying is that on FreeBSD, the system built shared
libraries don't have libc recorded in them because we don't add -lc on
the commnad line to build them.  Other libraries do have it recorded
in them, for example I have libxvidcore.so from some port on my
system:

I guess the original poster confused me.  He said in another reply to
this thread that adding -lc failed to record a dependency on libc.  But
whatever, I think we're in agreement no matter how much we try to
imply we're not :-)
