gcc9 is probably still a bit premature.  'make USE_GCC_TOOLCHAINS=yes tinderbox'
still uses gcc6 as I still have several open reviews for gcc9 fixes, though
OpenZFS regressed the build for both gcc6 and gcc9 as Adrian is finding.

I think I would also just suggest 'pkg install ${TARGET_ARCH}-gcc6' rather than
building the port.  That is what 'make tinderbox' suggests.
