Hmmm, my /usr/lib contains these shared libs:
-r--r--r-- 1 bin bin 403106 Jul 3 1994 libc.so.1.1
-r--r--r-- 1 bin bin 466907 Jan 25 1995 libc.so.2.0
-r--r--r-- 1 bin bin 435248 Nov 16 04:40 libc.so.2.2
I wonder why I have 2.2 and not 2.1 (I'm running 2.1.0-RELEASE)?

Ah yes... you need the shared memory extensions in your kernel,
and your X server must also support it. 2.1.0 kernels come with the
SysV shared memory, semaphores and message-passing queues enabled by
default. I should have made note of that in the README.FreeBSD.
While you're recompiling the kernel, it would be a good idea to
increase the maximum shared memory segment size while you're at it.
The GIMP documentation suggests 32 megabytes (!), and I think FreeBSD
defaults to 4 megabytes (1024 SHMMAXPGS * 4K NBPG size). Try
increasing SHMMAXPGS to 2048 or 4096 in your kernel config file (seems
safer than changing SHMMAX directly).
