Comment (by kencu):

 It took a while to build this, but I have it built now (both gcc7 and
 libgcc). It builds through without errors, and I compiled my favourite
 c++11 test port, `aria2` and that builds and works correctly so far.

 I then rebuilt libgcc with my +defaultabi4 variant, so it would always use
 the "correct" ABI for this system; that also built though correctly.

 To me, this looks good to go.

 Thanks to everyone for your efforts; it's a real bonus having gcc7 on PPC.
 If we / I / somebody can ever fix the "exceptions" problem, clang-3.8 for
 PPC will be a full-bore go as well, which would be something special too
 (I backported Marcus' macports-libstdc++ fixes into clang-3.8 so it can
 work on PPC like the cxx11 1.1 PortGroup does already on clang-3.9+).
