What library is that?

We base the FreeBSD binaries on 4.10-RELEASE-p2.  Would it make
sense to support 6.x as well?  If so, we need a binary of
the c library to bootstrap the build

        tar -C / --exclude=zlib.h --exclude=zconf.h --exclude=gmp.h -czf 
public_html/freebsd-runtime-$(uname -r).tar.gz 
/usr/lib/{lib{c,c_r,m}{.a,.so{,.*}},crt{i,n,1}.o} /usr/include

Yes.  I do not have that file either.  It is not required to build
LilyPond.  I do have a ttf version, however

$ locate VeraBd
