They indeed released one very important c++ library under BSD terms which could help get a rid of GNU tool chain. See the section about FreeBSD and NetBSD foundation endorsement. Even if the compiler is not BSD licensed it is still free and highly optimized for multi-parallel supercomputing so it could be used to improve the state of supercomputing on NetBSD and FreeBSD.

Cheers,
