If you have linux_base-fc4, creating the following link should fix it:

ln -s ../../lib/librt-2.3.6.so /compat/linux/usr/lib/librt.so.1

This is something that should have been added to the linux_base-fc4
package long time ago, but I guess it got lost. CC'ed to maintainer.
The same error appears when you run /compat/linux/bin/ls.
