You actually don't need to build it at all, you can use an external toolchain to skip the first build and you can compile WITHOUT_TOOLCHAIN  to avoid building the version that's installed and then install a toolchain from packages:

Hi,

I'm very interested in a base without llvm because of compile times. So I tried this in a jail with 14-current and pkg llvm12 installed.

/etc/make.conf:
WITHOUT_TOOLCHAIN=yes
CROSS_TOOLCHAIN=llvm12

Buildworld, installworld and etcupdate went fine. "yes | make delete-old" removes the toolchain from base.
Afterwards you can't do buildworld anymore.

# make buildworld
sh: cc: not found
make: "/home/ronald/dev/freebsd/share/mk/bsd.compiler.mk" line 200: warning: "cc -v 2>&1 | grep "gcc version"" returned non-zero status
make: "/home/ronald/dev/freebsd/share/mk/bsd.compiler.mk" line 204: Unable to determine compiler type for CC=cc.  Consider setting COMPILER_TYPE.

What am I missing?

Regards,
Ronald.
