Nope.  They have gcc-4.2.

Check the linked library contents of your package.  More often than not,
it will wind up linked to a library from the gcc4N that you used to
build it.  In such a case there is no choice:  you pick a gcc4N and
users build that if they don't have it installed.

gcc44 is now the minimum recommended version, since it works on all of
our platforms, which gcc43 does not.
