There is no /lib (nor /shlib, if you were wondering). Both static
and shared libraries are in /usr/lib. ld.so is in /usr/libexec. Both
/usr/lib and /usr/libexec are part of the bindist tar ball. Did you
note any errors during installation about incomplete files or a
truncated tar file? If you /usr is on a separate filesystem, did you
remember to mount it?
