Would it be reasonable to start looking at ports which actually contain the 
file in their pkg-plist, such as lang/gcc*:

247-sec% pkg_info -La | grep libstdc++.a
/usr/local/lib/gcc/i386-portbld-freebsd4.9/3.4.0/libstdc++.a

Maybe one of the gcc ports created or symlink'ed that library under 
/usr/local/lib directly, rather than, or in addition to, using the GNU 
autoconf-triple + software_version path...?

Someone with a system exhibiting the problem might try the command above and 
see whether they get a match.
