Here's the list of offenders that have ${OSREV} in some path:

editors/xemacs21/stable
lang/bootgcc
lang/gcc/11
lang/gcc/8
lang/gpc
lang/pcc/pcc-libs
lang/swi-prolog
math/octave

And these get bumped because they compile in a path to gcc that 
changes:

devel/clang-tools-extra
devel/llvm

Fine by me.  I think we're in the current situation simply because
nobody has sat down to fix it.

We did not, see distrib/sets/lists/comp/gcc.sparc64.
