gccgo doesn't work on macOS, unfortunately: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=46986

Replying to cooljeanius:

As for the latest update, compiler itself may build, but runtime is not properly supported: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/22885#issuecomment-1822581110

This should be a variant for gcc* ports though, not a separate port, IMO.

Like we also need for modula-2 and gccrs.
