The same problem happens with the Linux run time linker - it merrily tries =
to=20
link FreeBSD libraries to Linux binaries with predictable results..

One trick I use for that is to put a symlink in /compat/linux in the place =
the=20
problematic FreeBSD library is..

That said it would be really nice if it ignored incompatible libraries :)
