You have three choices: 1) Upgrade to -current 2) Grab just the fixed ld.so 3) Hang out for a couple of months and wait for the 1.2 NetBSD release. We are just now entering the release cycle for 1.2. If you want to get on the mailing lists, that's cool. We have many people who are on, and file bug reports and such. Course, we can always use more help.
