[racket] sandbox error

Trying "/usr/lib/libcrypto" with no suffix is a last-ditch effort. It
accommodates a library request where the given library name has a
suffix already; in this case, "libcrypto" is provided without the
suffix (and the search adds an ".so" suffix and version numbers).

I don't yet have another idea why the search might fails. Just to make
sure, what does

  (require setup/dirs)
  (find-lib-dir)
  (get-lib-search-dirs)

produce for your installation?
