Only amd64 and i386 have ports-mgmt/synth as an option. This traces back =
to its use of ada and what the ada compiler supports. . .

ports/head/ports-mgmt/synth/Makefile :

USES=3D           ada:6

ports/head/lang/gcc6-aux/Makefile :

LANGS=3D                  c c++ ada
. . .
.if ${OPSYS} =3D=3D FreeBSD
ONLY_FOR_ARCHS=3D         amd64 i386
. . .
.endif
.if ${OPSYS} =3D=3D DragonFly
ONLY_FOR_ARCHS=3D         x86_64
. . .
