devel/volk: fix build on armv7

This port does not build on armv7 due to inline assembly unsupported by clang.  Armv6 does not seem to be affected.

Fix the build by compiling with gcc on armv7.

Tested with Poudriere on armv7 FreeBSD 13.

Please MFH if possible.

Note that a version 2.5.0 of devel/volk has been made available in the meanwhile.  it might be a good idea to update the port on the main branch in addition to fixing the build.

Have you tried to build the port with binutils?

BTW the "raw unified diff" looks weird, what do you use to generate the diff?

Hi Mikael,

Just using binutils (i.e. -no-integrated-as) won't cut it in this case as generating the assembly from an extended inline assembly template is what fails.  So the failure occurs before the assembler gets to look at the compiler output.

As for the diff, this is what git-format-patch(1) gave me.  It is supposed to be applied using git-am(1), giving you a ready-made commit (perhaps with some changes to the commit message).

It's probably bugzilla being broken then:
