One thing to clarify.

What was in my mind is that bkgbase built with external toolchains,
currently would be lang/gcc* or devel/llvm*, should depend on the
toolchain used to pull in proper mandated codes and mark itself as
"built with external toolchain".

Assuming pkgbase using internal toolchain only depends on nothing in
ports tree, but ports-mgmt/pkg be the only exception.
