Building on FreeBSD 3.2

Two steps forward and one back. Indeed, config.log showed me the answer; it
wasn't able to find libdl.so. This turned out to be in /compat/linux/lib,
so I added a -L line pointing thereto at the point in the config script
where it compiles its little bit of test code to see if dlopen() exists.
Now, the same compilation gives the result "/compat/linux/lib/libdl.so:
undefined reference to `_IO_stderr_". So it looks like I have some poking
around with the FreeBSD Linux compatibility libraries ahead of me; oh joy. 

I have a question, however, that might enable me to bypass all that: Is
there a way to build SN in such a way that it uses the already-installed
versions of tcl, grep, db etc. rather than the ones that come with the
source distribution?
