Comment (by rickyzhang82):

 To maintainer,

 Why GCC upgrade so frequent?

 First of all, it took long time to build. I don't think I need marginal
 compiler performance improvement to trade off our time to rebuild the
 whole gcc6 and gcc7.

 Secondly, it is horrible to see the build breaks. Do we test portfile
 before pushing it? If it has not passed build test, why we push the update
 in haste?

 Sorry about my rant. I just feel pissed after building gcc6 and gcc7 for
 hours, I only need other package which only takes a minute to build.
