Since gmake 4.4 is still x.x.1, it must still need a transition period from 4.3.
So, Yuri-san prepared devel/gmake43.
Currently this would conflict with devel/gmake.
To use this, BUILD_DEPENDS must be gmake:devel/gmake, not
gmake>=4.4.1:devel/gmake.
Or it would require construction using DEFAULT_VERSIONS in Mk/Uses/gmake.mk for
the version to be automatically selected, rather than manually pre-installed by
a human.

I feel that creating an environment for builds is not different from using
poudriere.
In the meantime, we wait for the construction as described above :)
