5.0dp1 was from about 6 months ago, before pkg_add support for .tbz
packages was finalized.  It's working properly if you upgrade to
-current.

This is a library from 4.x-stable, and presumably means you downloaded
4.x packages instead of 5.x.  The correct fix is to remove them and
use 5.x packages instead, but if you insist on keeping these you can
install the compat4x package (or build world with COMPAT4x=yes).
