Ports are /required/ to be usable on Tier 1 architectures -- which are amd64 and i386 at the moment. Those are the two architectures provided by RedPorts, and what the pkg build cluster supplies at the moment. However, the way things are going this is likely to be changing: i386 popularity is waning fast, and ARM (including RasPi) is popping up everywhere. Do not expect changes in the next few days or weeks though -- there's a lot of work to do to get the ports tree into decent shape on a new Tier 1 platform. There may be discussion about what should be Tier 1 platforms and maybe even a consensus at BSDCan next week. As for your specific problem: libgcrypt doesn't require GCC 4.6 specifically -- it requires a compiler that understands the gnu89 standard, which should be *any* version of GCC. If a more recent GCC has grown support for the RasPi, that might be your way forwards. You will probably find the freebsd-ports@... list a more relevant audience for this topic.
