when we updated time_t to be 64-bit for everyone in 2008-2009, we bumped the shlib versions of *all* libraries we ship with netbsd itself, which means all X libraries are at least 1 version higher than what they would normally do. what the shlib version is shouldn't matter, because shlib users should get the right version via the shlib's SONAME being recorded in the binary later, and that being found, and eg, for this case it would be libXcursor.so.2 being searched for. is there an actual problem because of this? i didn't quite find that but maybe i missed it. .mrg.
