I've noticed a problem when compiling games/hedgewars port: it builds fine in
poudriere, but fails on the host, being unable to link test fpc program trying
to run /bin/ld.bfd (which does not exist). I've tracked it down to this patch:

https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/lang/fpc/files/patch-compiler_systems_t__bsd.pas?revision=556252&view=markup

It composes linker path based on LOCALBASE environment variable. This doesn't
seem right as LOCALBASE is not guaranteed to be set (however it seems to be set
in poudriere). It looks like LOCALBASE value at the time of fpc build should be
hardcoded into the source here. Additionally, though it uses ld.bfd from
binutils, fpc does not have runtime dependency on binutils. This should be
fixed as well.
