Yep - it still felt like the right thing to also address this in the port.

This is the direction I'm working towards by establishing lang/gccX-devel
ports (for snapshots) in addition to ang/gccX ports (for releases).

Absolutely.
Sadly there is a fair amount of broken software out there, and while
we are close, having to fix/work around all of that has been delaying
things.

In case you (or anyone else) want to help, I created a couple of
bug reports that now are marked as blocking this upgrade. Help
