I just set up a new i386 with a build from yesterday's sources, and
encounter the following error when attempting to run Netscape:
/usr/pkg/lib/netscape/navigator-4.78/netscape: error in loading shared
libraries: /mnt/wd0e/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6: undefined symbol:
__mb_cur_max
A similar error ensues when attempting to run a "Hello world" Java class
using Swing:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError:
/usr/pkg/java/jre/lib/i386/libawt.so: /mnt/wd0e/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6:

I haven't seen this error from any other programs, so I suspect the
problem is somewhere between Linux emulation, X, and locale support. (It
also occurred in the 20010827-1.5X snapshot, FWIW.)
The symbol in question is defined in
/usr/src/lib/libc/locale/__mb_cur_max.c.
How to fix? Suggestions welcome. :-)
