Yes, I have no problem compiling and using for example GNU-grep, 
GNU-patch, GNU-make, pkg-config, GNU-tar or the latest xz-utils without 
having to set the LIBS environment variable. (I hope that this is a 
little bit representative.)

@Chris: I have setup an environment like you mentioned already. The 
output of dump -Lv dovecot also reveals that /usr/sfw/lib is in RUNPATH 
as well as in RPATH. I also checked that libgcc_s.so.1 is really there.

Stephan
