Hi Keith, Easybuild has all the easyconfigs (and easyblocks) needed to build everything for you. All you have to do is: eb -r -l GCC-4.8.2.eb And watch how gcc gets build for you ;-)
However, easybuild requires a full toolchain (include mpi, blas/lapack, ...). With `eb --list-toolchains` you get a list of all supported toolchains and what's in them. Pick one, and then look for the easyconfig file for it and run it.
