I disagree. There is a significant chance that gcc in base will be gone for all Tier 1 platforms in 10.0. There are still some reasons to want gcc installed, but there are no compelling reasons to want an ancient version of gcc installed on x86[-64] or ARM. For people who need gcc, the ports collection provides a selection of recent versions.
