Careful here. That was output by libtool. Absolute file name linking is problematic on some BSD systems, but normally not on GNU/Linux, at least not for libstdc++ which has a DT_SONAME set. So if libtool creates absolute links on FreeBSD which cause DT_NEEDED entries with directory components in the output, then please report this. Thanks.
