I've put the first version of these changes into Phabricator now:

1. retire BSD_CRTBEGIN option
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D23122

2. retire LLVM_LIBUNWIND option
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D23123

3. rm GCC 4.2.1 build infrastructure
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D23124

In my WIP branch the next two commits remove contrib/gcc and contrib/gcclibs.
