It is probably not correct, but not harmful for you.  Somewhat recently,
we moved from "needs this compiler/language feature, so say it needs N"
to "declare the language variant and features".

I would suggest trying to see if it needs C++NN for some higher value
than is declared, or std::filesystem or something like that.  Also see
if upstream says you need a particular language variant.

But, upstream says that a "modern" compiler is needed which they define
as gcc >=6!

so it really should not need 10 instead of 7.

I went to to build this on my n9/amd64 test box.  I noticed it had been
built a few weeks ago.  The build went fine, all the way to a binary
package, uneventfully.

Do you have any non-default settings in mk.conf?  cpuflags?

Do you have an old version of libaom installed?

Have you done pkg_admin rebuild/rebuild-tree, patrolled pkgin sk, and
done pkgin ar?

Do you have cruft in /usr/pkg/include?  In /usr/include (specifically
/usr/include/g++)?
