This reminds me: Should we merge USE_GCC=any into USE_GCC=yes again? I understand why you created USE_GCC=any back in the days, and it has served a useful purpose. These days it only makes a difference on powerpc64 (and sparc64) since everywhere else USE_GCC=any already is the same as USE_GCC=yes. Which means essentially everyone tests their ports with GCC 8, even in case of USE_GCC=any. And essentially nobody tests with GCC 4.2, so things tend to get missed or broken on powerpc64. Everyone using the same version of GCC, across platforms, would alleviate that. Gerald
