Do you have the Linuxulator's ld.so.conf (which sits in /compat/linux/etc)
set with the correct path(s), and NOT picking up the stuff in /usr/local?
I am not at all sure that's what's biting you, but it'd be one way to get
bitten.  There are parallel ld.so tools for Linux and for FreeBSD, and the
Linux one is supposed to stick a prefix of /compat onto it.

You could try using the Linux "ldd"program, it should only find the correct
 libs.

Fear of what your suggest is why, a short whioe back, I tried waging a war
to get folks to move all their linux libs back into the /compat tree, so
this sort of confusion couldn't happen, but I can't honestly say if that's
really what bit you here or not.
