Yes, but probably not in a timeframe you'll want.  We picked up gcc5 as part of r151016 (first post-LTS stable).  This will likely be frozen until after the next LTS (next LTS is r151022).

I remember this from earlier... you basically want this:

bloody(build/gcc51)[0]% pkg contents gcc-5-runtime
PATH
usr/lib/amd64
usr/lib/amd64/libgcc_s.so
usr/lib/amd64/libgcc_s.so.1
usr/lib/libgcc_s.so
usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1
bloody(build/gcc51)[0]% 

To now include usr/lib/{,amd64/}libgomp.so* ?!?

I take it these binaries do dlopen() to find libgomp...

Thanks,
Dan
