compiling glib20 in ports with gcc v4.6.2

[Sameer R. Manek]

Inside work/glib-2.26.1/glib, Not sure why it's using cc instead gcc46,
below is my /etc/make.conf

Well first glib's configure check if the compiler/linker supports this flag
"checking for -Bsymbolic-functions linker flag... yes".

I also test build glib20 with gcc46 after your report and it works fine.
However I believe that if you use a gcc version from ports it should use
also the linker from the binutils package, not the linker from base.
