Because you're using the FreeBSD system compiler, we update it along
with other things.  If you don't like this, then try using one of
the egcs ports in the ports tree.

Urm, the guy is right, we've incorperated fixes into the c++ compiler
to deal with the problems you are facing, please upgrade to the most
recent copy of 3-stable.

If you can't do that then merge the fix yourself, it's in our cvs logs.

This belongs on -stable or more likely -questions.
