It appears to help when the lines:

local:
    *;

are removed from /wrkdirs/usr/ports/x11/libxkbcommon/work/libxkbcommon-1.7.0/xkbcommon.map. Apparently on main, environ and __progname are slightly different.

In any case, the "local: *;" thing has caused problems before, so maybe it's better to get rid of it.
