but where does your modlogan binary expects libgd.so.2?
did you compile modlogan yourself or did you just install a (binary) 
package? the (linux?) distributions should take care of proper linking.

try this:

% su -c "strace modlogan -c modlogan.conf 2>&1 | grep libgd" www-data
open("/usr/lib/libgd.so.2", O_RDONLY)   = 5

  this is, what it get. and /usr/lib/libgd.so.2 does exist here.
