That was my understanding too, both gcc5-aux and gcc6-aux being broken on 
CURRENT with 64-bit inodes.

Now I feel like I can upgrade with 11.0-STABLE but not CURRENT.

My recent CURRENT installation seems too unstable to use as a build host.

I would rebuild 11.0-STABLE first and later use that as a host to rebuild 
CURRENT.

I would want gcc(5 or 6)-aux not only for synth but also (gcc5) to try to 
cross-compile Haiku and (gcc5 or 6) to try to cross-compile a Linux toolchain.

I would also want an updated FreeBSD system that ports would support as opposed 
to something like

FreeBSD amelia 11.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 11.0-CURRENT #10 r294248: Mon Jan 18 
11:28:40 UTC 2016     root@amelia:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SANDY11NC  amd64

Regarding portmaster, when something on which a lot of other ports depend is 
upgraded, such as a major version update of png, it takes many runs of 
portmaster before everything is successfully updated.
