The find-prefix infrastructure was required in a pkgviews world where
packages installed from pkgsrc could have different installation
prefixes, and this was a way for a dependency prefix to be determined.
Now that pkgviews has been removed there is no longer any need for the
overhead of this infrastructure. Instead we use BUILDLINK_PREFIX.pkg
for dependencies pulled in via buildlink, or LOCALBASE/PREFIX where the
dependency is coming from pkgsrc.
Provides a reasonable performance win due to the reduction of `pkg_info
-qp` calls, some of which were redundant anyway as they were duplicating
the same information provided by BUILDLINK_PREFIX.pkg.

Changes, New Features, and Fixes in GCC 4.9 can be found here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.9/changes.html
This is based heavily on lang/gcc47 but updated for GCC 4.9.1. Tested on
SmartOS (32-bit and 64-bit) and NetBSD 6.1.4/amd64.
