At least on my system, it seems to be part of the Linux ABI, so
maybe the module in question is designed for Linux?

	% locate libnsl
	/usr/compat/linux/lib/libnsl-2.3.6.so
	/usr/compat/linux/lib/libnsl.so.1

There's no "libnsl" in the ports, and "nsl" search results don't
seem to bring up something appropriate.

My suggestion would be to install the Linux ABI and have the
setting

	linux_enable="YES"

in your /etc/rc.conf. The linux.ko kernel module should be loaded
automatically, or maybe you already have it in your kernel config.
