As the PR states, the port stop building with clang (segfaults when running
table_gen).

Nope, I only test on all production (11.4, 12.2) releases plus current on
both i386 and amd64.

Should be fixed in r565214. I overlooked this. Thanks for the heads up!

Since the use case  for USE_GCC =3D any seems narrow (I don't think many
ports build with 12 years old compilers on many tier 2 platforms), we could
add a warning in the terms of "unless you can guarantee that this works on
tier 2 platforms with very old compilers, this is probably not what you
want. Try USE_GCC=3Dyes instead"

Thanks!
