What is the current status of synth with FreeBSD ports, and I could also ask 
about gcc-aux.

I see gcc-aux remains at v6 (gcc6-aux) while gcc is updated to 7.4.0 and 8.3, 
and even 9.1.

Is poudriere now the main tool for updating ports?

Poudriere has always been the main (FreeBSD) tool for QA and package building.

Note: While poudriere has overlapping functionality with portmaster and portupgrade, in the sense that they all "build ports", poudriere was designed primarily as a "package builder", not as a local port/package installation tool, though it *can* be used that way.

What is the status of portmaster and portupgrade now?

Both are maintained as far as I know. portmaster has FLAVOR support, I'm not sure about portupgrade re FLAVORS, though I do recall seeing reports of it not working in the not so distant past, so it may not.
