GDB 6.1.1 was released in June 2004 and is long obsolete. It does not
support all of the architectures that FreeBSD does, and imposes
limitations on the FreeBSD kernel build, such as the continued use of
DWARF2 debugging information.
It was kept (in /usr/libexec/) only for use by crashinfo(8), which
extracts some basic information from a kernel core dump after a crash.
Crashinfo already prefers gdb from port/package if installed.
Future work may add kernel debug support to LLDB or find another path
for crashinfo's needs, but in any case we do not want to ship the
excessively outdated GDB in FreeBSD 13.

As of r361857 all BINUTILS options are disabled by default - ports
have been changed to depend on binutils if they require GNU as, and
all base system assembly files have been switched to use Clang's
integrated assembler.

Now that we no longer have GCC 4.2.1 in the tree and can assume FreeBSD
is being built with a C++11 compiler available, we can use BSDL dtc
unconditionally and retire the GPL dtc.
GPL dtc now has FreeBSD CI support via Cirrus-CI to help ensure it
continues to build/work on FreeBSD and is available in the ports tree
if needed.
The copy of (copyfree licensed) libfdt that we actually use is in
sys/contrib/libfdt so the extra copy under contrib/dtc/libfdt can be
removed along with the rest of the GPL dtc.

As described in Warner's email message[1] to the FreeBSD-arch mailing
list we have reached GCC 4.2.1's retirement date. At this time all
supported architectures either use in-tree Clang, or rely on external
toolchain (i.e., a contemporary GCC version from ports).
GCC 4.2.1 was released July 18, 2007 and was imported into FreeBSD later
that year, in r171825. GCC has served us well, but version 4.2.1 is
obsolete and not used by default on any architecture in FreeBSD. It
does not support modern C and does not support arm64 or RISC-V.
Thanks to everyone responsible for maintaining, updating, and testing
GCC in the FreeBSD base system over the years.
So long, and thanks for all the fish.

Modification for compatibility with GNU diff output has been added
Main difference with OpenBSD:
Implement multiple GNU diff options:
* --ignore-file-name-case
* --no-ignore-file-name-case
* --normal
* --tabsize
* --strip-trailing-cr
Make diff -p compatible with GNU diff
Implement diff -l
Make diff -r compatible with GNU diff

If WITHOUT_GNU_DIFF is set no /usr/bin/diff or /usr/bin/diff3 will

If WITHOUT_GNU_GREP is set then BSD grep will be installed as
/usr/bin/bsdgrep or /usr/bin/grep, depending on the WITH_BSD_GREP

Import sdiff(1) from the diff version written by Raymond Lai,
improved during GSoC 2012 by Jesse Hagewood.
Compared to the version done in during that summer of code:
- Remove the zlib frontend: zsdiff
- Compatible output (column size and separators) with GNU sdiff
Compared to GNU sdiff in ports:
- The only difference is padding using spaces vs tabs
Compared to OpenBSD and NetBSD import:
- Implement missing options (including long options) from GNU sdiff
- Improved support for the edition mode (signal handling)
- Output visually compatible with GNU sdiff: size of columns
While here import regression tests from NetBSD adapted to fit the output as
expected by GNU sdiff

This change adds tests/ directories in the source tree to create various
subdirectories in /usr/tests/ and to install placeholder Kyuafiles for
them.
the relevant hierarchies are: cddl, etc, games, gnu and secure.
The reason for this is to simplify the addition of new test programs for
utilities or libraries under any of these directories. Doing so on a
case by case basis is unnecessary and is quite an obscure process.

expected to be mostly bug-to-bug compatible with the GNU
implementation.
- Because this is a piece of mature code and we want to make
changes so it is added directly rather than importing to
src/contrib.
- Connect newly added code to src/usr.bin/ and rescue/rescue

- Disconnect the GNU gzip code from build for now, they will
