+ <p>Long awaited, the update to GCC 4.9 as the default version of
+ GCC in the Ports Collection (<tt>lang/gcc</tt> port,
+ <tt>USE_GCC=yes</tt> in Makefiles) has arrived, up from GCC 4.8.
+ This brings quite a number of improvements, see <a
+ href="https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.9/changes.html">https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.9/changes.html</a>
+ for details.</p>
+
+ <p><tt>lang/gcc49</tt> has moved to the GCC 4.9.4 release which
+ marks the closure of the GCC 4.9 branch and release series.</p>
+
+ <p>(Yes, this means we should rather get the next version
+ upgrade for <tt>lang/gcc</tt> in place soon. That update per se
+ is straightforward, but any help in addressing the fallout of
+ broken ports would be great — please let us know if you
+ want to help!)</p>
+
+ <p><tt>lang/gcc6</tt> has been updated first to GCC 6.2 and then
+ GCC 6.3, bringing a fair number of fixes, and should now be
+ finely suitable for production use.</p>
+ </body>
+

+ <task>Update <tt>lang/gcc</tt> (and hence <tt>USE_GCC=yes</tt>)
+ to GCC 5.</task>
