I don't have a NetBSD system, but I would be extremely : surprised if it could do that -- _extremely_ surprised. As near as I can tell from reading the NetBSD docs, it isn't supported there either. NetBSD/i386 supports the same level of mixing that FreeBSD does. Both ELF and AOUT can live on the system at the same time, and the user can control which type of libraries is linked in on a per executable basis. But you can't link in the aout libraries directly. Every time this comes up, someone says objcopy. No widespread success has been reported after someone says this from the original poster.
