Sorry. No success as in it cores.
I reduced the problem down to a very simple case:
> cat hello.c
#include <stdio.h>
main () { printf("Hello world\n"); }
Put this onto a 5.3 RELEASE i386 platform and compiled it:
> file hello
hello: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), for FreeBSD 5.3.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped
It won't run though:
> ./hello
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
I did run the script to build the libs:
> ls /usr/lib32 | wc
393 393 5069
