'allo,

     I've got PKGSRC_COMPILER=gcc  in my /etc/mk.conf file.  Yet for some 
reason  I get the following results:

       prompt# bmake show-var VARNAME=PKGSRC_COMPILER
       sunpro

The same is true for other variables that I've set in my /etc/mk.conf and 
/etc/mk.conf.site files, like SHELL, CONFIG_SHELL, WRAPPER_SHELL, BUILD_JAVA, 
etc.  They do not seem to be getting set.  I'm including both the files at the 
end of the email.

I'm using pkgsrc-current, on a SPARC based Solaris 9 system.
