 Sorry for the delay in response; I did not see your mail in my mailbox
 until just now.
 
 Do you have /proc mounted for Linux emulation?  This is necessary for almost
 all Linux programs to work properly on NetBSD.  Your fstab should include:
 
 =====
 proc            /proc           procfs  rw,linux
 =====
 
 The ",linux" is very important in order to get Linux-compatible bits in
 /proc.
