[Top post going in a somewhat different direction.
Plus I listed the wrong version for bintils, not
6.4, but 2.30 .]
I probably should have referenced the line in
base/binutils/Makefile :
MASTERDIR=3D ${.CURDIR}/../../devel/binutils
which in turn brings in references for all the
direct dependencies that devel/binutils normally
has, such as seen via freshports.
This is how things that are missing up front end
up with an attempt to build them. I do not see
anything that effectively would say "disable
the dependencies that devel/binutils indicates".

That "6.4" should have been: 2.30
(I inappropriately thought of the gcc version number
originally.)
