 This has so-far been successful on two amd64-8.0_BETA hosts.
 
 Tests on i386 with the modified compiler to begin soon.
 
 Without the patch from PR toolchain/52326, the only workaround so far
 is not to install "sysutils/gvfs".  Packages which support the "gvfs"
 option should disable it (or do so in PKG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS).  Packages
 which unconditionally install "sysutils/gvfs" as a dependency should be
 built last, if possible.  Otherwise, forcibly delete "gvfs" each time
 a package pulls it in, and then explicitly build it last.
 
 
 The only question left is whether my explicit installation of
 "sysutils/gvfs" before any other affected packages invalidates the test.
 Another round of building packages with "sysutils/gvfs" built in its
 normal sequence as a dependency of "sysutils/xfce4-thunar" would likely
 be needed to answer that question.
