I'd sort of gotten the opinion that Anders had compiled up pine using just
the source as distributed by washington.edu.  The compiled version you're
looking at is version 4.10 from pkgsrc.  I'll let David evangelize the
benefits of using pkgsrc, but it looks like Anders is just trying to
get the vanilla pine distribution running yes?  

Is it possible that he compiled up pine with dynamic libraries but that
libpico.so.* didn't get installed into the dynamic library path?  The
error message he got wasn't very clear, it just looks like something
exploded somewhere.
