Did some checking and the problem might go back further than first assumed. Looks like it might be just after 4.0R, so the suggestion to upgrade might be the easiest path and revisit this post 4.2R. Wonder if a 4.1R system and the upgrade kit have the same problem? Ditto for 4.1.1R. Didn't scour the commits, but looked at the PR mentioned and re-read all messages. I'll have to check later, as I keep commits separated for each release. There was a commit on the 12th adding to libc. That however was one month after the PR. Surprising that someone doesn't know what might have borked things for ports. Satoshi mentioned libxpg4 earlier in the thread. The commit on the 12th might either add or fix the problem, otherwise have to look back to June on the 4th and 12-14th for libxpg4 stuff. Hope that helps.
