shows pretty clearly that GCC 4.6 is not equivalent to 4.9. Ports
that use MODULES=gcc4 and that build fine elsewhere with 4.9 are
broken on alpha with 4.6 because the compiler is too old.
If somebody wants to go through the list of MODULES=gcc4 ports and
individually mark those that build with 4.6, that's great, but as
a default it doesn't make sense.
