SUMMARY: ld-so wants wrong version of libc

Greetings!

  There were so many requests for the answer to this question that I'll post
it to the net. The problem with ld.so not finding libc was that many of
Sun's programs are now linking with the Sys V shared libraries instead of
the normal libc stuff. My dumps didn't pick up my 5lib because I had to move
them to a different drive to conserve space in /usr. Having a UCB program
like vi linking to the Sys 5 libraries would never have occurred to me.
