Mr. Wells beat me to this one.

Jordan gave me the "proper" solution for this, assuming you have the
compat21 dist installed.

Make a small script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ with this as the contents:

#!/bin/sh
ldconfig -m /compat/lib

if you're on 2.1.5 or earlier, you can modify /etc/rc and find the section
that configures the ldconfig paths.
