Are you sure this is still true?  Now that FreeBSD supports
dl_iterate_phdr (and has for a few years now), gcc exceptions are
handled through rtld, not libgcc_s.  I suspect that newer FreeBSD
releases have packages without this linked library.  Is there another
reason to see libgcc_s used these days?
