linux emulation finding wrong libraries?

I'm having trouble getting linux emulation to work properly.  I have the
Suse (9.X) packages installed, but when I run a linux binary, I get
errors regarding version information on the related libraries, e.g.:

$ skype
./skype: /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0: no version information available

If I run it as root, (`sudo skype`, for example), it works.  In that
case, skype freezes up my X when I try to dial a number, but that's
another issue for another time....  For now, any thoughts on how I can
get linux emulation to grab libraries properly for all users?

FWIW, permissions look okay:

$ ls -l /emul/linux/lib|grep pthread
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel    90390 Nov 20 11:11 libpthread-0.10.so
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel       18 Nov 20 11:11 libpthread.so.0 ->
libpthread-0.10.so

$ ls -ld /emul/linux/lib
drwxr-xr-x  4 root  wheel  2048 Nov 20 11:11 /emul/linux/lib


Cheers,
