No, definitely do not do this.  The version of a shared library is bumped
when incompatible changes are made.  If libc.so.7 was compatible with
libc.so.6, why wasn't it called libc.so.6?  :)  libmap.conf is only meant to
exchange ABI-compatible libraries (primarily the older threads libraries
libc_r, libthr, and libpthread).

You want to install the compat6x port, which will install FreeBSD 6.x
libraries, including libc.so.6.
