This is irrelevant since I don't plan to use egcs for production. I'd like to know whether the ports behave like the native compiler in -CURRENT. E.g. now I tell Joe User to use -R/vol/foo/lib for the runtime library search path (Joe User is familiar with Solaris and enjoys everything he already knows). But when he wishes to perform some experiments wich egcs, then he should use -Wl,-rpath. And when we switch to the next FreeBSD brach, I tell him that he has to use something completely different for the native egcs.
