FWIW, I don't think it is easy to use a different version of gcc as part
of a build world. If you just want to compile the tree from /usr/src without
building into ${WORLDTMP} first, then you can override things by adding
to /etc/make.conf.
I doubt that anyone will be keen to hear about problems building world
with anything other than the standard tools since there are too many
unknowns and the problems aren't readily reproducable.
