Alexander, Interestingly, I'm not seeing http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=9571 with SL's Xcodce 4.2 and gcc47-4.7.2 with current fink's use of llvm-gcc. Perhaps the recent FSF changes have cause this bug to go latent. If that is the case, I would think the bootstrap failures would exist for Xcode 4.2 and some of the older gcc4x packages. As far as I knew the fix from llvm.org wasn't backported to Apple's llvm-gcc until Xcode 4.3. Odd.
