You can do that, but since gcc7 is the latest stable version of gcc, ports that
currently use gcc6 by default will be updated over time to use gcc7 instead.
Until then, since I always build from source, I rather save CPU time. Speaking
of which, getting back to my first post, is there any way to query the build
time from the buildbots? It'd be useful to estimate when to do an update.
Why do you always build from source instead of use the tarballs when
available ? Its not entirely reasonable on one hand to complain about
build times, and at the same time turn off a feature designed to avoid
them...
