Why do I need a bunch of mappings for ld-elf.so in FreeBSD 8?

At some time during the process, I could no longer log in remotely because bash could not start due to /libexec/ld-elf.so not finding the right libraries. I added a bunch of lines to /etc/libmap.conf so that I could continue, and did a full 'portupgrade -af'. 'freebsd-update fetch' reports nothing to fetch, but I can't remove the lines from /etc/libmap.conf.

These mappings are not internal to ld-elf.so.

Could you post the contents of your libmap.conf and the output of 
ldd /usr/local/bin/bash ?

Also the errors bash gives when started without the mappings in libmap.conf.
