So I had been listening to RealAudio streams but they were using
the FFmpeg codecs.

I think the problem is that /usr/pkg/lib/RealPlayer8-Codecs/atrc.so.6.0
is a Linux-based shared library, and __lxstat is part of glibc.
But this library is being loaded from a native MPlayer.

The latest version of multimedia/RealPlayerGold (I'll submit patches
shortly) plays the stream with no problems.  In fact the new player
seems much improved over what I remember of older versions.
