christopher,
yeah, i've got symlinks in both /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib for this, but no joy
yet:
$ ls -al /usr/lib/libG*
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 12 Mar 5 18:39 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.4.0
$ ls -al /usr/local/lib/libG*
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 12 Mar 5 18:40 /usr/local/lib/libGL.so.1 ->
libGL.so.4.0

cheers,
jake
