 I think the packages that supply a *-config script/binary file should
 be taught to symlink that file into ${BUILDLINK_DIR}/bin in their
 buildlink3.mk files.  That will probably solve these types of problems
 since ${BUILDLINK_DIR}/bin is prepended to the PATH as part of the
 configure and build phases.
