I’ll send an email and see what shakes out
edit: and thank you for pinging me on this thread 
edit2: original contact email bounced, going up the chain to Elan. He usually responds to me.
edit3: getting access to a Plex internal chat group
edit4: if you don’t want to modify the plex rc script you can put this in /etc/rc.conf as a workaround to inject the env: plexmediaserver_env="LD_LIBRARY_PATH='/usr/local/share/plexmediaserver/lib'"
