Well, support for "every possible" combination is, of course, a toll order, but 
support for the base cc/c++ is a reasonable expectation, in my opinion...

And if there is a *good* reason to reject the base compiler, I'd expect such 
good reason to be documented -- preferably with bug-reports filed against either 
the FreeBSD and its toolchain or against the LibreOffice code. Or both...

Actually, clang, whatever faults you may have seen in it, would've produced a 
working libreoffice build. But it is not the cc/c++ on 9.1 and 8.3...
