On SPARC the target CPU type may now be set via -mcpu instead of being
limited to the hardcoded equivalent of -mcpu=ultrasparc and TLS support
is enabled if available.

Update to the release of GCC 4.6.0 (basically).  Really too many changes
to sensibly list here, but http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.6/changes.html has a
nice overview.

Some highlights include

 - a new quad-precision library that's used by the Fortran frontend
   (on x86 and amd64);
 - new -Wunused-but-set-variable and -Wunused-but-set-parameter warnings
   for C family languages (enabled by -Wall and -Wall -Wextra, too);
 - new -Wdouble-promotion warning for implicit promotions to double;
 - a new general optimization level -Ofast combines -O3 with options that
   can affect standards compliance but result in better optimized code;
 - link-time optimizations (LTO) now scaling to large input sizes, using
   better heuristics, and optimizing more aggressively;
 - new command-line options -fstack-usage and -fstrict-volatile-bitfields
   (for precisely defining and accessing memory-mapped peripheral registers);
 - function attribute leaf that allows for more aggressive optimizations;
 - new data type __int128 for targets having wide enough machine-mode support;
 - support for selectively enabling and disabling warnings via
   #pragma GCC diagnostic has been added. For instance:

     #pragma GCC diagnostic error "-Wuninitialized"
       foo(a);                  /* error is given for this one */
     #pragma GCC diagnostic push
     #pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wuninitialized"
       foo(b);                  /* no diagnostic for this one */
     #pragma GCC diagnostic pop
       foo(c);                  /* error is given for this one */
     #pragma GCC diagnostic pop
      foo(d);                   /* depends on command line options */

 - new command-line option-fmax-errors=N;
 - experimental support for some features from the upcoming ISO C1X;
 - similarly for ISO C++0x including constexpr, nullptr, noexcept,
   unrestricted unions, range-based for loops, opaque enums, implicitly
   deleted functions, and implicit move constructors;
 - default warning when integers are cast to larger pointer types,
   to disable via -Wno-int-to-pointer-cast;
 - signficiantly better diagnostics for C++ code;
 - loads and loads and loads of improvements to the Fortran frontend;
 - a new Go frontend and run-time library;
 - massive work on Objective-C and Objective-C++; notably extensive
   support for Objective-C 2.0  (not enabled by this port yet);
 - support for Intel Core 2 processors (-march=core2, -mtune=core2),
   Intel Core i3/i5/i7 processors /with AVS (-march=corei7, -mtune=corei7,
   -march=corei7-avx, -mtune=corei7-avx);
 - support for AMD Bobcat (fam 14) processors (-march=btver1, -mtune=btver1);

Caveat:

 - Most libstdc++ standard headers have been changed to no longer include
   the cstddef header as an implementation detail.

00:21 gerald 

Update to the 20110312 snapshot of GCC 4.6.0.  On the way, remove the
LTO option.  This is now the default, without any drawbacks or extra
dependencies.

17:38 gerald 

Update to the 20110305 snapshot of GCC 4.6.0.  Remove the dependency
on libelf when building with link-time optimization (LTO) support which
is not needed any more.

01:11 gerald 

Update to the 20110226 snapshot of GCC 4.6.0.  The change for code
generation on i386 to default to i486 on FreeBSD 6 and above is now
upstream, too, so we can shed our specific patch.

18:56 gerald 

Update to the 20110219 snapshot of GCC 4.6.0.

This addresses the pollution of common namespace by
share/python/aotcompile.py and share/python/classfile.py which now
go into version-specific directories.

By means of an extra patch default code generation on i386 defaults
to i486 on FreeBSD 6 and above. [1]

global include file namespace though this won't be an issue before GCC
4.7 and I have reported it upstream).

Update to the 20100911 snapshot of GCC 4.6.0.  This brings one fix for
FreeBSD/ia64 that I made upstream and together with another, which is a
local patch for now, ia64 can become part of ONLY_FOR_ARCHS.

18:21 gerald 

Update to the 20100904 snapshot of GCC 4.6.0.  This brings first support
for _float128 on i386 and proper symbol versioning for libgcc.

23:57 gerald 

Similar to lang/gcc45, add a new option LTO that enables GCC's new
link-time optimization framework and optimizations.  GCC 4.6 has been
seeing a lot of work since GCC 4.5, but we are still keeping this
disable by default for now

Using LTO adds libelf as a new dependency and in either case the
environment does not have an influence any more.  Bumping PORTREVISION
since someone who had libelf on his system previously to this change
would get LTO enabled automatically and then run into problems if libelf
was removed.

Update to the 20100828 snapshot of GCC 4.6.0.

22:05 gerald 

Update to the 20100821 snapshot of GCC 4.6.0.  This now really does not
work with the ancient version of GNU as that is part of FreeBSD 8.1 and
earlier (and likely later), so where the dependency this port has on
devel/binutils was a strong recommendation until now and necessary to
leverage new processor features and the -mtune=native option when running
on those newer processors, it is now strictly needed on x86-64 at least.
