	One option, using pkgtools/pkgchk

	pkg_chk -g		Build .../pkgsrc/pkgchk.conf containing a list
				of all installed packages. Add lang/gcc3 and
				possibly devel/cpuflags to the start

	pkg_delete -r \*	Delete everything. May want to rename away
				/usr/pkg in case any cruft left

	pkg_chk -aks		'A'dd all missing packages, 'K'eep going in
				case of errors, only install from 'S'ource

	Bear in mind galeon is one package that doesn't seem to build
	cleanly under gcc3:
