Sigh.

Yes, I'm sure that I could first do tests with c89, then whatever failed,
try again with c99, then try c11, then try again with c++11-lang, then ...
etc. etc.

Or I could carefully read the code of each port I'm trying to fix.

OTOH I would like to have powerpc64 ports usable before FreeBSD-19
comes out.

fwiw the stats on built packages:

    Mon Nov 19 13:48:26 UTC 2018        16485
    Sun Jun 16 06:10:04 UTC 2019        27953

I'm not even going to try to look up the number of build tests and
commits involved in getting us to this point.  Hint: the former is
not the hundreds, it's in the thousands.
