Why?  They are still there at the same location:

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  20 Sep 10 20:59 /usr/lib/libpthread.so -> /lib/libpthread.so.2
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  17 Sep 10 20:59 /usr/lib/libpcap.so -> /lib/libpcap.so.4

(The .so links are used when linking the program dynamically.
They are not needed for running a dynamically linked program.)
