--- Comment #4 from David Chisnall <theraven@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Gerald Pfeifer from comment #1)

Using libstdc++ is moderately dangerous on FreeBSD, as it is not the system=
 C++
standard library.  It is only moderately dangerous though, because it uses
different symbol names for the standard library symbols and so should resul=
t in
a hard linker error if attempting to use it for a public interface with
something linked against libc++.

Using libsupc++; however, is very dangerous.  It exports symbols with the s=
ame
names as those exported by libcxxrt.  These are likely to interfere in ways
that cause exciting forms of breakage.  The gcc ports should not be install=
ing
a libstdc++ that links to libsupc++.

As to clang not working with libstdc++, last time I tried it -stdlib=3Dlibs=
tdc++
worked, and would pick up the correct libstdc++ if the correct -I and -L fl=
ags
were passed.  If this doesn't work, please file a bug report.  As far as I
know, --gcc-toolchain is a compile-time configuration option (from the old =
and
now removed autoconf LLVM build system) to specify the default path for
headers, not a compiler flag.
