USE_GCC=3Dany means that the port hardly ever is tested with base GCC, since on amd64 it is equivalent to USE_GCC=3Dyes and building with base GCC (if present) is only ever tested on architectures that only very few people hav= e. Can you please change this to presenting USE_GCC=3Dyes as the default and noting the ":build" option? I put effort into keeping Mk/bsd.gcc.mk up-to-date, and would be happy for you to lift the description there and bring things more in sync again. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
