Bug 274042: lang/gcc8 lang/gcc9: fix build with libc++ 17
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=274042
--- Description ---
When building relatively recent gcc ports (with C++ in them) against libc++ 17,
you get errors similar to:

This is because gcc/system.h includes safe-ctype.h which redefines ctype macros
such as toupper, tolower, etc to "poison" them.
However, it should only include the safe-ctype.h header *after* any C++
headers, such as <list>, <map>, <string>, etc, otherwise these might
transitively include internal ctype headers (such as with libc++ 17), causing
the above conflicts.
Here is a patch that moves the safe-ctype.h inclusion to later in gcc/system.h,
which solves this issue, and makes it possible to build against libc++ 17.
