XMMS is definately building and installing the ESD output plugin:

Making install in esd
make[2]: Entering directory
`/export/home/lavalamp/archive/src/xmms-1.2.3/Output/esd'
make[3]: Entering directory
`/export/home/lavalamp/archive/src/xmms-1.2.3/Output/esd'
/bin/sh ../../mkinstalldirs /usr/local/lib/xmms/Output
/bin/sh ../../libtool  --mode=install ../.././install-sh -c libesdout.la
/usr/local/lib/xmms/Output/libesdout.la
../.././install-sh -c .libs/libesdout.so /usr/local/lib/xmms/Output/libesdout.so
chmod +x /usr/local/lib/xmms/Output/libesdout.so
../.././install-sh -c .libs/libesdout.lai /usr/local/lib/xmms/Output/libesdout.la
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Libraries have been installed in:
   /usr/local/lib/xmms/Output

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
     during execution
   - use the `-RLIBDIR' linker flag

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `install-data-am'.
make[3]: Leaving directory
`/export/home/lavalamp/archive/src/xmms-1.2.3/Output/esd'
make[2]: Leaving directory
`/export/home/lavalamp/archive/src/xmms-1.2.3/Output/esd'

Still getting the exact same error at runtime even if:

export LIBS="-L/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.7/2.95.2 -lgcc"

Now what?
