This reminds me: Should we merge USE_GCC=any into USE_GCC=yes again?
I understand why you created USE_GCC=any back in the days, and it has
served a useful purpose.
These days it only makes a difference on powerpc64 (and sparc64) since
everywhere else USE_GCC=any already is the same as USE_GCC=yes. Which
means essentially everyone tests their ports with GCC 8, even in case
of USE_GCC=any. And essentially nobody tests with GCC 4.2, so things
tend to get missed or broken on powerpc64.
Everyone using the same version of GCC, across platforms, would
alleviate that.
