I am curious whether anyone has succeeded in either compiling Darwin 
Streaming Server for NetBSD (1.6.1, i386), or failing that, whether 
anyone has succeeded in running the Linux or FreeBSD binaries of that 
server on NetBSD. I have tried and failed both at compiling it for 
netbsd and running it under emulation.

I end up with a billion errors whenever I try to compile the source for 
NetBSD, and attempts to run the provided Linux binary under 
linux_compat with the suse packages installed results in the following 
error:

./DarwinStreamingServer: error while loading shared libraries: 
libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory

Since I do not have access to a linux box with the appropriate 
libraries, nor have I been able to find them in a package that I can 
open, I feel stuck here.

Has anyone out there made any headway with the Darwin Streaming Server 
on NetBSD?

Thanks.

Here are some relevant links:
Apple's "Darwin Streaming Server" is available here:

Here's someone who succeeded in compiling it for FreeBSD:

A search of the archives turns up a couple of relevant posts. I tried 
emailing the authors but their email addresses are no longer 
functional.
