Don't set it in the env, set it in a make variable.  The
devel/arm-none-eabi-gcc port (which builds a bare-metal arm cross
compiler and may be exactly what you need) has this:

.include <bsd.port.options.mk>

# The following is required for clang to bootstrap gcc.
.if ${COMPILER_TYPE} == clang
MAKE_ARGS+=	CXXFLAGS=-fbracket-depth=512
.endif
