It hasn't been implemented, yet. I don't want to start a pointless license discuss, but briefly, FreeBSD developers have decided that gplv3 code will not be allowed in the repository until some mechanism is in place to completely isolate the gplv3 code from all other code. The intent, I believe, is to allow companies that use FreeBSD as a base for their products to eliminate gplv3 to avoid the newer restrictions that gplv3 places on them. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39193
