Win32 codec oddity with related to libc

[v.velox at vvelox.net (Vulpes Velox)]

When using mplayer with the win32-codecs port, has any one noticed
that a symlink needs to be made from /usr/lib/libc.so.6 to
/lib/libc.so.5?

It results in the inability to play some real media files and mplayer
kicks out a error about libc.so.6 not being found.

Or is this something odd I am running across just here?
