All the libs required for /bin or /sbin have moved to /lib. Like this:

> cd /bin

sh: ELF 64-bit MSB executable, SPARC V9, version 1 (FreeBSD), for FreeBSD
5.0.1, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

> ldd sh
sh:
        libedit.so.4 => /lib/libedit.so.4 (0x40348000)
        libncurses.so.5 => /lib/libncurses.so.5 (0x40462000)
        libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5 (0x405c4000)


Notice that sh is dynamicly linked to stuff in /lib.
