--- Comment #3 from Gerald Pfeifer <gerald@FreeBSD.org> ---
GCC 5 has reached end of life, and we should minimize it's use.  I'll
add a note shortly, as we have for lang/gcc49 and earlier already.

Unfortunately lang/gcc6 and lang/gcc6-devel have

  .elif ${ARCH} =3D=3D powerpc64
  CONFIGURE_ENV+=3D UNAME_m=3D"powerpc64"
  USE_GCC=3D        5       # Cannot require ourselves, needs to be at leas=
t 4.9.
  .endif

and so require GCC 5 to build.

Andreas, any thoughts on that?  Do we still need this workaround?  (I
guess we can focus powerpc64 support on 11 and 12 if that helps?)
