Thanks, so my problem is likely unrelated to the handling of
these symbols. 

Yes, I am using a recent version:
[..]
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  1223888 Apr  9 10:26 /usr/lib/libc.a
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel        9 Apr  9 10:26 /usr/lib/libc.so@ -> libc.so.4
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel   578176 Apr  9 10:26 /usr/lib/libc.so.4
[..]

But, I just stubled across something very strange... or stupid.
ldd'ing the application in question shows no reference to libc.so.

...

Ok problem solved. I did not verify a claim of one of my students.
Argl! They used an older version of the application, but claimed
the new one shows the same error. But it doesn't. It works
perfectly.
I'm still wondering, why the old one apprently did not link
against libc.so, but I don't really care....

Sorry for bothering all of you. :(

Thanks for your help and best regards,
 Daniel
