    Ah, that isn't it (I am just mentioning it because CentOS 7 built far
    less packages before this change).  It is lang/gcc49 and lang/gcc5.

Right, switching to lang/gcc7 to build everything made things much easier. Overall, the 2020Q4 release using GCC 7 has been the easiest build that I can recall.
