--- Comment #2 from Jan Beich <jbeich at FreeBSD.org> ---
PIE is mandatory since ports r410748. www/firefox passes -pie during build
which appears to be broken with lang/gcc* earlier than lang/gcc49. However,
-fpie still works.

Can you try a different compiler? lang/gcc5 or clang37 from devel/llvm37.
USES=compiler:c++11-lang by default chooses either /usr/bin/clang or, if not
available, lang/clang34. But if you've defined FAVORITE_COMPILER=gcc it can be
influenced via /etc/make.conf e.g.,

  DEFAULT_VERSIONS = gcc=5
