Hi,

I believe the build gcc-2.95.3nb5 is broken on 1.5.4_ALPHA, while it
builds fine on 1.6.

With pkgsrc from a few hours ago it stops here:


  ===> Checking for vulnerabilities in gcc-2.95.3nb5
  => Checksum OK for gcc-2.95.3.tar.gz.

  Stop.


I do not know whether this could be related, but the reason why I wanted
to rebuild gcc-2.95.3 was libgcc_pic.a as well. The old compiler package
(plain gcc-2.95) did not link the shared library of devel/smpeg with
libgcc_pic.a which seems to be required to resolve the symbol
__pure_virtual. Probably needless to mention that the system compiler on
1.5.x (egcs-1.1.2) could not compile the library correctly, either;
At least one package depending on libsmpeg.so complained later about the
missing symbol __pure_virtual.

The binary packages for 1.5.1 (smpeg-0.4.1 and smpeg-0.4.1) miss the
symbol as well, while binary packages for 1.6* (smpeg-0.4.3 and
smpeg-0.4.4*) provide it.


Should a PR for this be filed under pkg or toolchain?
