Is > this intended? The idea was not to remove that example altogether, but update it to use a newer version. A simplified version of the commit looks as follows: -# USE_GCC= 7+ # port requires GCC 7 or later. +# USE_GCC= 9+ # port requires GCC 9 or later. The other example that referred to GCC 6 was mandatory to update since USE_GCC=6 is not supported any more; version 7 I could have left in, but figured pointing people to something newer would be better. In general the USE_GCC=X+ is mostly used for ports newer than the current default. Just with GCC_DEFAULT at 9, which is the newest release available, that was the highest choice available - until GCC 10 becomes available in spring. ;-) Would you prefer different examples in Mk/bsd.gcc.mk?
