How on earth did you even get egcs BUILT on NetBSD?  At least up to a
few snapshots after the 1.0.1 release, egcs would die on the 3rd
build during a 'make bootstrap' (the part where it tries to build
itself using itself).  I seem to recall the problem being in egcs's
assembly output not being liked by our gas.  Did you build a new
gas too (unlikely, since your question is about shared libs).

Please let us know your magic. ;-)
