net/net-snmp build failure on 9.99.37

[Chavdar Ivanov <ci4ic4%gmail.com@localhost>]

Hi,

I bumped up my development machine to 9.99.37; after that I usually
rebuild pkgtools/osabi and all that depend on it; this usually does
not cause problems (with the exception of lsof, which I had installed
some times ago and which does not build any more at all, as it is
using apparently internal to the kernel interfaces).

This time it failed to build net/net-snmp, as it for some reason
decided that it has a build dependency of devel/binutils from
lang/gcc3 (which I do not have built and installed so far).;binutils
fails to build at the extract stage - as it claims built-in dependency
on itself:

Stop.

*** Error code 1

I ran 'make -dA'; at one stage it sets _NEED_GCC3.

Anyway; this hasn't happen before; the pkgsrc tree was updated on the
5th of January and pkg_rolling-replace was carried out (with a number
of failures, but overall OK). The last successful net-snmp build was
on the 11th of January under 9.99.36:

 # ls -l /usr/pkgsrc/packages/All/net-snmp-5.7.3nb12.tgz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 4065659 Jan 11 23:19
/usr/pkgsrc/packages/All/net-snmp-5.7.3nb12.tgz
