libgl.so seems to be missing; this causes capture to fail:
[opus!jhawk] ~> capture
19094:capture: rld: Fatal Error: cannot map soname 'libgl.so' using any of the filenames /usr/lib/libgl.so:/lib/libgl.so:/lib/cmplrs/cc/libgl.so:/usr/lib/cmplrs/cc/libgl.so:/usr/lib/libgl.so.1:/lib/libgl.so.1:/lib/cmplrs/cc/libgl.so.1:/usr/lib/cmplrs/cc/libgl.so.1: -- either the file does not exist or the file is not mappable (with reason indicated in previous msg)

It'd be cool if the ~ files in /os/usr/lib could go away.
They're just a bit disconcerting to us poor users, though we
are happy to hear you guys are performing binary edits on the
release:
[opus!jhawk] /os/usr/lib> ls -ld *~
lrwxr-xr-x 1 81989 sys 27 Mar 21 12:26 libgd.so~ -> ../../var/arch/lib/libgd.so
lrwxr-xr-x 1 81989 sys 8 Mar 21 12:40 libgl_s.a~ -> libgl.so
lrwxr-xr-x 1 81989 sys 37 Mar 21 12:24 libmalloc_cv.so~ -> /usr/WorkShop/usr/lib/libmalloc_cv.so

lrwxr-xr-x 1 81989 sys 32 Mar 21 12:24 pixie_64.a~ -> /usr/WorkShop/usr/lib/pixie_64.a
[zephyr discussion indicates that these might actually be intentional;
I guess it's possible, but i remain highly skeptical :-)]
