That's what pkg has calculated as the change in disk space usage
resulting from replacing one version by another.  It certainly looks
suspicious on the face of it: given the package size of 88MB and
presuming the previous package wasn't orders of magnitude different in
size it's hard to see where that size of change would come from.

Do you still have the gcc-4.6.4.20121102 package around look in
/var/cache/pkg/All)?  Can you try

   pkg info -s -F gcc-4.6.4.20121102.txz

and

   pkg info -s -F gcc-4.6.4.20121123.txz

please?

	Cheers,

	Matthew
