Two questions for FreeBSD 11: libgcc & pkg

Hi, if somebody would be kind enough to educate me, I've two small questions about the 11 release.


First, https://wiki.freebsd.org/WhatsNew/FreeBSD11 mention that libgcc was replaced by libcompiler_rt, yet after the freebsd-update upgrade/install/install/portmaster -af/install routine, I still have a (recently updated) libgcc:

  # ls -l /lib/libgcc_s.so.1
  -r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  56608 Jul 26 14:13 /lib/libgcc_s.so.1

Is it normal?


Second question is about the talks that the base system would be
pkg-ized (https://wiki.freebsd.org/PkgBase). Do base pkgs share the same pkg database as ports pkgs? Can I now damage base installation with bad pkg usage?


Thanks a lot for answers!
