Description dewayne 2019-03-02 06:50:17 UTC 
The platform is a virtualbox vm, on a Windows10 64bit.  Refreshed /usr/src, build and installed world and kernel

Unfortunately 12 took a lot more space to build so I needed to use ln -s /d1 /usr/ports.  Otherwise standard, note the __MAKE_CONF=/dev/null eliminates make.conf content, so its what we see.

Is this stil relevant? (Seems overlooked to assign).
Comment 2 Gerald Pfeifer freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2020-01-31 17:57:34 UTC 
I have not seen any report like this since this PR was filed, neither
from users nor any of the automation systems, and this used to be the
default version of GCC in the Ports Collection, so I am confident to
say it must have been something very specific with the local system of
the reporter.  Hence closing this without an ability to reproduce.

Should something like this happen again the future, please have a look
at the message

   See `config.log' for more details.
   
and see what the respective config.log file reveals.  Based on the error
reported, something appears be off with the bootstrapping compiler or the
environment.
