This includes additional functions to be protected: those that
have local array definitions, or have references to local frame
addresses. This is a new option in GCC-4.9 that was relicensed
by Han Shen from Google under GPLv2 for OpenBSD.

This mimics the behaviour in clang and lets us build cleanly
the libdispatch port on platforms where the base gcc is still
the default compiler.
Bump __FreeBSD_version for ports.

Block objects [1] are a C-level syntactic and runtime feature. They
are similar to standard C functions, but in addition to executable
code they may also contain variable bindings to automatic (stack)
or managed (heap) memory. A block can therefore maintain a set of
state (data) that it can use to impact behavior when executed.
This port is based on Apple's GCC 5646 with some bugfixes from
Apple GCC 5666.3. It has some small differences with the support
in clang, which remains the recommended compiler.
Perhaps the most notable difference is that in GCC that __block
is not actually a keyword, but a macro. There will be workaround
for this issue in a near future. Other issues can be consulted in
the clang documentation [2]
For better compatiblity with Apple's GCC and llvm-gcc some related
fixes and features from Apple have been included. Support for the
non-standard nested functions in GCC is now off by default.
No effort was made to update the ObjC support since FreeBSD doesn't
carry ObjC in the base system, but some of the code crept in and
was more difficult to remove than to adjust.

original intent, but the functionality wasn't implemented until after
gcc 4.2 was released. However, if you compiled a program that would
behave differently before and after this change, gcc 4.2 would have
warned you; hence, everything currently in the base system is
unaffected by this change. This patch also adds additional warnings
about certain inline function-related bogosity, e.g., using a
static non-const local variable in an inline function.
These changes were merged from a snapshot of gcc mainline from March
2007, prior to the GPLv3 switch. I then ran the regression test suite
from a more recent gcc snapshot and fixed the important bugs it found.
I also squelched the following warning unless -pedantic is specified:
foo is static but used in inline function bar which is not static
This is consistent with LLVM's behavior, but not consistent with gcc 4.3.
