I've applied the parts of this that add -lm to contrib modules, but not
the parts that add -lpgport. That's because libpgport is not built to
be relocatable, and so including it fails hard on platforms that care:

/usr/ccs/bin/ld +h libtsearch2.sl.0 -b +b /home/postgres/testversion/lib dict_ex.o dict.o snmap.o stopword.o common.o prs_dcfg.o dict_snowball.o dict_ispell.o dict_syn.o wparser.o wparser_def.o ts_cfg.o tsvector.o rewrite.o crc32.o query.o gistidx.o tsvector_op.o rank.o ts_stat.o snowball/SUBSYS.o ispell/SUBSYS.o wordparser/SUBSYS.o -L../../src/port -L/usr/local/lib -lpgport -lm `gcc -L../../src/port -Wl,-z -Wl,+b -Wl,/home/postgres/testversion/lib -print-libgcc-file-name` -o libtsearch2.sl.0
/usr/ccs/bin/ld: DP relative code in file ../../src/port/libpgport.a(exec.o) - shared library must be position
independent. Use +z or +Z to recompile.
make: *** [libtsearch2.sl.0] Error 1

We will need to either eliminate the dependencies on libpgport, or
use the extra-compilation technique used in, eg, libpq.
