If you switched to gcc right away after bootstrapping, those are the
only packages that need to be rebuilt. The link error is not caused by
any other package, but the compiler itself.

Not really. It seems, several people have managed to use lang/gcc44 as
compiler under Solaris, or even gcc45 from wip. IIRC the fix for
"relocations remain against allocatable but non-writable sections" is
not really that hard, but I was never able to find the right place to
insert the fix in pkgsrc.
