This is intentional (the system compiler is rebuilt as part of the
buildworld process, and thereafter used explicitly).

You can't compile world with a compiler that is not the system
compiler, because it would fail with errors.  If you must have a world
compiled with gcc 3.x, you'll have to use the FreeBSD 5.x branch,
which uses gcc 3.x as the system compiler.
