Sorry Jeremie,

This has nothing to do with /etc/ld-elf.so.conf (which I do not have)
and my /var/run/ld-elf.so.hints is just fine too.  I was observing what
looked like an oddity in how libraries are selected on a correct
system.  It was most likely because some library that kadmin was linking
in had an rpath to /usr/local/lib that was causing libcrypto.so.3 to get
picked up there instead of in /lib.  This is the only think I can think
of.

The proper cure for me was to eliminate the bogus ports install of
openssl.  It would appear the one in base and the ports version are not
compatible.

Cheers,
Sean
