Both of these allow the build to succeed as a regular user (non-root), 
when INSTALL_TARGET=install-strip is set.

Alas with STRIP=true many files end up being not stripped, whereas with 
the BINMODE setting the list is down to one file.
  
This appears to be the case since various aspects of GCC do not use our
install-* tools, but a script install-sh (which you can find at the root 
of the GCC source tree that uses cp, chmod, strip,... for compatibility 
reasons with many systems).

So I guess setting BINMODE=755 is the best option if we want binaries
and libraries in the gcc* ports stripped?


(This is now also tracked in https://reviews.freebsd.org/D10357 where
miwi proposed a patch originally.)
