This is the first snapshot from trunk with the GCC 12 designation. It
largely is a copy of lang/gcc11-devel.

+GCC has two runtime libraries:  The static library libgcc.a (-lgcc) and
+the shared library libgcc_s.so (-lgcc_s).  Both implement many of the
+same functions but they also each have their unique functions.  When
+gcc links programs and libraries there are three possibilities:
+
+1. gcc -static-libgcc or gcc -static: -lgcc
+   => Just use libgcc.a.
+
+2. gcc -shared-libgcc: -lgcc_s -lgcc
+   => Link with libgcc_s first, so libgcc.a is only used for its unique
+      functions.
+
+3. gcc: -lgcc -Wl,--as-needed -lgcc_s -Wl,--no-as-needed
+   => Link with libgcc.a first so libgcc_s is only used for its unique
+      functions (_Unwind_* functions).
+
+Approach 3 is the default for gcc and it's also what clang and clang++ use;
+approach 2 is the default for gfortran, g++ and probably other front ends.
+
+This patch makes 3 the default for gfortran.  It significantly reduces
+the use of libgcc_s.  The _Unwind_* functions are also available in the
+old base system libgcc_s which means this reduces the need for
+-rpath /usr/local/lib/gccN in ports that depend on libraries built with
+gfortran.  Consider a dependency tree like this:
+
+  prog -> libA -> libgcc_s (old base system libgcc_s is fine)
+       -> libB -> libgcc_s (libB built with gfortran, needs new libgcc_s)
+
+Here prog needs to be linked with -rpath /usr/local/lib/gccN even if it's
+a normal C program compiled with clang.  Without -rpath it will fail to
+start because it loads old libgcc_s first as a dependency of libA and then
+it fails to load libB.  With this patch libB works with old base system
+libgcc_s or may not need libgcc_s at all, so prog does not need to be
+linked with -rpath.
+
+Upstream is unlikely accept a patch like this because libgfortran calls
+some _Unwind_* functions and so always needs libgcc_s.  Also because
+every Fortran program and library links to libgfortran it makes sense
+that option 2 above is the default.  On FreeBSD where clang and GCC
+compiled code can be mixed and where multiple libgcc_s may be installed,
+option 3 is just a lot easier to deal with.
+
+The bug that sparked this is PR 208120 (but note there's a lot of
+misleading information in that bug.  CMake is not actually doing
+anything wrong.)
