[Insert obligatory plug for 'elinks', which is better. Oh well.]
Can I assume we're talking about w3m-0.5.2 or higher?
One concern I have is that the last time I built w3m, at least, it
had a dependency on libgc (the Boehm Garbage Collector). I take
it that this case has a dependency on LSARC/2008/068?
Since libgc was not listed in imported interfaces, I'm confused.
Presumably you will amend the case and remember to record
a package dependency on SUNWlibgc.
Given the use of libpng/gtk, am I to assume that you are enabling the
optional image rendering support? (--with-imagelib ?) I'm skeptical
that this is useful, and means that w3m might not be able to be
used on a system which has no X11/GTK packages.
I would also note (although it is not architectural) that libgc has worked
poorly for me on x86, and led me to drop my usage of w3m (after about 6
years) for elinks.

This text seems entirely out of scope for a case like this. Also, you
copied it verbatim from the documentation of w3m (doc/STORY.html) without
attribution. That seems bad.
