 Because someone forced you to use it, see lang/gcc46/Makefile:
 
 # Determine whether to use binutils
 .if ${OPSYS} == "SunOS"
 CONFIGURE_ENV+=         OBJDUMP=/usr/sfw/bin/gobjdump
 CONFIGURE_ARGS+=        --without-gnu-ld --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld
 . if !exists(/usr/sfw/bin/gas)
 CONFIGURE_ARGS+=        --without-gnu-as --with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as
 . else
 CONFIGURE_ARGS+=        --with-gnu-as --with-as=/usr/sfw/bin/gas
 . endif
 .endif

 Someone (i.e. someone with more knowledge about either assembler or TLS 
 than me) should probably take this upstream. Although this is a GNU 
 project, unconditionally confining it to one assembler is a little bit 
 shortsighted.
