FreeBSD or any other system could be updated the GCC version for every
release and there would still appear a newer GCC version that requires
an even newer libgcc_s.so in the release life time. Heck, the very same
problem happens in the other direction as well, i.e. if you are forced
to use an *older* GCC and pick up its libgcc_s.so.
