That linux-gate.so is a "virtual DSO", so there is no corresponding file (see [1] for a concise explanation of what this is about). IOW, that should be fine -- though I'd be marginally worried about it being mapped to 0x00000000 (I'm not entirely sure how that's supposed to behave in a mixed arch environment... Anyone else knows?) Well, we'll know if that's ok, once that libXcursor thing is resolved...

(/etc/ld.so.conf should already contain the dirs /emul/ia32-linux/lib, /emul/ia32-linux/usr/lib and /emul/ia32-linux/usr/X11R6/lib) If all else fails, you could also try to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to /emul/ia32-linux/usr/lib -- see ld.so(8).
