>Description:
I have noticed that PKGSRC default installation does not enforce the use of the 
native GCC. This will lead to many packages depending on building lang/gcc 
which is quite annoying for Darwin users because that package does not compile 
with Mac. Looking at the sources I believe that DragonFly users will have the 
same problem.


>How-To-Repeat:
Try to compile gnupg2 with Darwin
>Fix:
In my case I solved my problems forcing the native GCC in my configuration and 
cleaning the pkgsrc tree (bmake clean). The change does not take effect 
otherwise:

USE_NATIVE_GCC=     yes

Maybe that should be mentioned on pkgsrc documentation:
http://www.netbsd.org/docs/pkgsrc/platforms.html

I have filed this bug as doc-bug, but maybe it could be solved with bootstrap. 
However I believe the ideal solution might be achieved with the documentation 
because I have the feeling that I should compile GCC and later remove that 
option (I have the feeling that will lead to fewer future problems)
