 Hallo David,
 in my ignorance I had supposed that pkgsrc protected
 somehow from writing outside of its tree during the
 build phase. This experience was however enlightening.
 I followed the instructions in 
 /usr/pkgsrc/lang/gcc34/README
 these require downloading a bootstrap compiler from
 http://www.johnrshannon.com/NetBSD/ix86/
 and this is
 /usr/pkg/gcc34-bootstrap/
 I untarred it, as by instructions, though I now see it is a package.
 All right, now when I attempt compilation as an unpriviledged
 user, the compilation proceeds to a larger extent, stopping
 at:
 gmake: *** No rule to make target `gnatlib-shared'.  Stop.
 *** Error code 2
