Thanks, Charlie. That's been on my list of things to do; I just wanted 
to tread gently and first ensure the new port landed fine. Mk/bsd.gcc.mk
is updated now.


Note the comment above GCC_DEFAULT in Mk/bsd.default-versions.mk reads

   # Possible values: 8 (last to support powerpcspe), 9, 10 

So GCC_DEFAULT=11 has been undocumented - and very intentionally so - and 
unsupported. I'll also change that in the next days, now that lang/gcc11
has landed. 

Still, versions of GCC_DEFAULT not documented in Mk/bsd.default-versions.mk 
aren't meant for general use. That's what the docs are for to guide. :-)
