Below is a post-configuration workaround which permits print/teTeX-bin
to build and install on SPARC Solaris 9 using lang/gcc3-[c.c++] as the
pkgsrc compilers:

cd ${LOCALBASE}/print/teTeX-bin/
bmake configure
mv work/tetex-src-2.0.2/texk/web2c/Makefile \
   work/tetex-src-2.0.2/texk/web2c/Makefile.orig

Specifically, the targets for pdftex and pdfetex link against
libgcc.<suffix> twice, ignoring the dependency (reported by the link step
when it failed) on libgcc_s.so.  So, I changed the second occurrance of
'-lgcc' to '-lgcc_s' and it succeeded.

Ideally, the above modifications need to be regressed back to the pre-
configuration patch phase, but that's a bit beyond me at this time.

Hope this helps someone else who finds themselves in a similar predicament.
