Look like this port uses essentially the same distfile as `devel/binutils'.
Would you consider swiching to tar:xz distfile so users don't have to keep
and download two copies of the same archive, just differently compressed?
Also, .xc tarball is ~10MB smaller.

`devel/binutils' had switched to tar:xz back in r518918.
