These ports don't compile

1. Get fresh binutils from ports, and make sure it's used, and libtool 
you are using was compiled with gcc you want to use (e.g. libao
problem).

2. Ports are usually tested with base compiler, lately some with clang 
too. 

If you think you are competent enough to make them work with
non-base compiler, you're welcome to provide patches in PR's
(http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html). 

Maintainers of ports are not required to test them with non-base 
compilers, however they're usually happy to make their ports 
compliant with newer gcc, after all, more and more people are 
messing with ports compiler, but it's not officially supported
configuration.
