I'm not sure I understand what you are saying.

To begin with you should go to /usr/src/libexec/rtld-elf and do a
make clean;  make depend && make -DWITH_LIBMAP && make install
 
Assuming, that whatever you're porting is NOT statically linked, then
all you have to do is edit /etc/libmap.conf; for example:
# global mappings
libc_r.so.5	libkse.so.1
libc_r.so	libkse.so

and then start the application. Any executables that are started
after that and are linked to libc_r, will instead link with
libkse. Then, you stop the database, and edit libmap.conf to
point to libthr. Then, startup the database.
For more information: man libmap.conf.

Cheers.
