Summary: FreeBSD port fails to build with GCC 4.6.3

Initial Comment:
I have FreeBSD 8.2 with GCC 4.6.3 installed like it is described in handbook:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/custom-gcc/article.html

I get the following error from gcc while trying to build the port:

unrecognized command line option '-fformat-extensions'

Message:
Looks like the problem arises in making of /modules/freebsd/vmemctl/ when
some files from kernel source are linked.

No, it's pure setup according to instructions in handbook. I tried to add
or remove CPUTYPE and CFLAGS variables in make.conf - no effect. Commenting
out CC=gcc46 in make.conf helps.

Message:
I don't see any plane in our sources where that switch is added to gcc's
command line. Are you sure you don't have some local config file or env
variable that has it?
