gnu dependencies
Hello, Since FreeBSD now has Clang and always had its own shell, a lot of dependencies and options like bash, gnu, hal, gcc, and gtk aren't needed for many ports to compile. Some programs (especially gtk affiliated and linux emulation programs) still fail without gmake, but there is gmake-lite for that. The point is, I was able to compile programs by removing many of these dependencies from Makefile's, and reduced compile time from 2 hours to 5 minutes for emulators/wine, with no problems, and the program worked. I think there is a lot of bloat on ports, because it was imported, with only one knowhow of how to compile it. Now that this is pointed out, this way should be easier, and certain dependencies do have their BSD equilvalent replacements.

clang; gmake
Correction on my last post. Removing "gmake" alone from many Makefiles improves many builds, by reducing gmake dependencies and options. This is since FreeBSD has its native clang. GNU and GTK tools didn't necessarily have to be removed for compile improvements to be made. Also, it would be better if ports that use hardware to have an option of only DEVD or HAL. I propose to take this into account in port-trees. It will in fact make port maintainer's jobs' easier.

emulators/pipelight, compiler
Hello, Is it possible to replace GCC with Clang in emulators/pipelight. Here's what I have for the diff file, and it compiled fine. The plugins still don't work, but perhaps this will make fixing it easier.
