Probably not needed now that you've found it.  Sorry the response wasn't quicker --- Was reading about filesystems:

$ grep libstdc++-libc6.2.2.so.3 /var/db/pkg/*/*/CONTENTS
/var/db/pkg/sys-libs/lib-compat-1.1/CONTENTS:obj /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 ead51e7fb684f2764690e452257f79b3 1044213129

I was looking around for CONTENTS, but I'm used to it being one big file instead of multiple small files (coming from solaris and all).  I like multiple small files better anyways, grep'ing through one huge CONTENTS file was a pita.

thanks!

I know it requires starting a getty on the ttyS<whatever> --- even knoppix doesn't support it now.  I'm guessing no one has thought up a good way to detect no monitor, fail to serial port kind of thing.  Oh well, I'll plug in a monitor and remaster knoppix to boot the serial port, for the "oops" episodes.
