Log: Makefile: re-wordsmith the blurb about xtoolchain ports The new version only includes a specific version once, and uses the one that's currently advised by tinderbox: -gcc6. It also advises just installing the pkg, but mentions in a side-note at the end where to find the source in the ports tree.
