That works today, but isn't a particularly good long-term answer:
  * Ports that demand GCC will increasingly expect something newer than =
GCC 4.2.
  * Someday (FreeBSD 11? FreeBSD 12?) we will no longer have GCC =
in-tree.

So it's certainly worth exploring how to build ports that require GCC
without using the in-tree GCC.
