You need to install the "linux_lib" port (it's in the emulators 
category).  If you don't have this on your CD-ROM or hard drive, get it from:

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/ports/emulators/linux_lib

Just run make in this directory, then make install.

The "/usr/libexec/ld.so" you found is NOT the correct file -- this is the 
FreeBSD linker, and only understands FreeBSD libraries.  You need the 
Linux ld.so, which is included in the linux_lib package, because it 
understands Linux shared libraries, which are vastly different than 
FreeBSD ones.
