I think you're talking about
https://github.com/NetBSD/pkgsrc/compare/trunk...TritonDataCenter:pkgsrc:feature/gcc-selection/trunk

It has about 40 commits, can you summarize what the plan was?

I'm thinking that we should perhaps switch to a model where we
bootstrap including a compiler (perhaps allowing to choose any of the
gcc packages, or just the newest one), and if a package wants a newer
version than that bootstrapped (or the native) one, then the package
is marked as broken.
