I assume what you really mean, is how do you add /usr/X11R6/lib to your 
library path; so that you can say.. startx. if thats the case you want 
to have a '/etc/ld.so.conf' and put all of your lib path in that. 

--ex: 
/usr/lib
/usr/pkg/lib
/usr/local/lib
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/krb5/lib

Fix? This implys a broken state. I'm not convinced that anything you've 
described would mean that netbsd was 'broken'. Possibly not as pre-
configured out of the box as other os's. This is really a feature tho.
