I just feel compelled to point out one detail, the GCC option could also used to indicate the port should compile using any GCC, also including the one included in base. Usually this does not happen just because depending on ports GCC exclusively is easier than allowing base one too. I agree this is really a minor issue. -- Guido Falsi
