Is this to fix a particular issue?  The problem is it is incompatible
with the approach of bulk builds which use a separate gcc in the pbulk
prefix.

This avoids having to reinstall gcc for every single package build,
which would considerably bloat the build times.

I know you have issues with my proposed runtime split, but that does
take care of this problem (though perhaps not fully as I need to
understand why you need this patch) by rewriting the libgcc dependency
to use the runtime from the target pkgsrc, not the pbulk pkgsrc:

  
https://github.com/joyent/pkgsrc/blob/joyent_gccruntime/lang/gcc47-runtime/buildlink3.mk#L17

Without this, you cannot distribute packages without also bundling the
pbulk bootstrap.
