I have a Tyan Tempest II Dual P166 PCI/EISA and have a similar problem. 
The PC is in my office where I left it running 'make world' after I 
supped current and this is what I get when I telnet to it...

telnet host
Connected to host.cet.co.jp.
Escape character is '^]'.
ld.so failed: header read failed for "/usr/lib/libc.so.3.0"
Connection closed by foreign host.

The PC spec

Tyan Tempest II Dual P166
32MB RAM
NCR53C815 PCI SCSI
Digital DE500 FAST PCI Ethernet

It runs (WinNT|UnixWare 2.1|BSDI 2.1) without any problems.
