Hello,

This topic was raised and discussed a little bit in PR pkg/56707. In
short, what you've committed will perhaps cause other issues.

As-is, you may find that it's linked against GCC libraries from pkgsrc,
but that isn't declared as a dependency, so a binary package from a
bulk build would be broken on installation. (Or, if you decided you
didn't need GCC 8 from pkgsrc anymore, it would let you remove it, and
not warn you're removing dependent libraries.) There are ways around
this at the package level, but they're not ideal. (I added a workaround
like this to www/webkit-gtk recently to get it to build on NetBSD 9.x.)

Separately, at present GCC 8 doesn't build from pkgsrc for 32-bit ARM.
I don't know if anyone uses this package in that context, but nia@
mentioned that in the PR.

Regards,

Dave
