Which version NetBSD are you running? 1.5 or 1.4 (or earlier)?  If you are
using a.out binaries, which is 1.4.3 and earlier, you need put /usr/pkg/lib in
/etc/ld.so.conf, and do a 'ldconfig -v' to update the hints.  On elf platforms
(1.5 and later), there is no need for that.  See ELF FAQ for details.
