There is another thread on -current recently, the simple anwser is:
it's fine now.
Please see: https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/svn-src-all/2020-March/195013.html

On head, all the supported architectures are using clang/llvm,
currently on CI only amd64 is building with xtoolchain gcc6. It's
failing at the moment after new ncurses imported.  My current plan is
adding jobs for other architectures after we can this fixed, or it's
just having more failing results.

Best,
