--- Comment #1 from Kubilay Kocak <koobs at FreeBSD.org> ---
Technically a documentation issue. The current documentation is not incorrect,
it is just not explicitly complete, mentioning also the fact that its a
RUN_DEPENDS too

The ability to specify gcc as a build *only* dependency is being handled in bug
211154, with workarounds in ports in the meantime taking the form of something
like ports r464059 (removing gcc from RUN_DEPENDS)
