I think this problem probably needs to move over to distutils-sig, as it doesn't seem to be specific to the way that Python itself uses distutils. distutils.command.build_ext tests for Py_ENABLE_SHARED on linux and solaris and automatically adds '.' to the library_dirs, and I suspect it just needs to do this on FreeBSD as well (adding bsd to the list of platforms for which this is performed "solves" the problem, but I don't pretend to know enough about either distutils or freebsd to determine if this is the correct solution).
