Just so you know; I'm not a GNU C zealot.
It was just my understanding the FreeBSD supported *both* gcc,
and clang/llvm, as the tool-chain in base. Given that clang/llvm is
*much* larger, and as such, slower for (initially) building/installing
kernel/world. I chose gcc on a fresh install. Thinking I could
add clang/llvm later, and into userland. After 3 days of investigating
all of this. I have discovered all of this to be untrue. FreeBSD
*currently* doesn't support gcc as the tool-chain, w/o a *great* deal
of "dancing", or "hoop jumping", and even then; not *likely* for
kernel.
Not *really* complaining, per se; just saying. So you'd understand
why I was using gcc4* on a new system. :)

Hope I answered your question. :)

Thanks.
