gcc42 is best because gcc41 does not work on intel.

Do not touch gnustep ports, the update is coming soon (I was waiting for gcc 4.2) but needs to be sync'ed with a MP release.

In that case, I am for pulling them all to gcc42 if that continues to work.

I believe the ports below depend on gcc40 rather than /usr/bin/gcc because they require a fortran compiler.

I think that every port that depends on any version of gcc 4 in 10.4 should be tested against the version of gcc 4 that is bundled with XCode. If that works, then make building against our gcc 4 a 10.3-only requirement.

Now that gcc42 is a final release, what should be done with all the ports that depend on gcc41? Should they be updated to require gcc42 instead? It's not very many ports:

devel/lua-numlua
gnustep/gnustep-base
gnustep/gnustep-make
lang/ftidy
python/py-numpy/Portfile
textproc/pdftk

There are also a few still using gcc40:

lang/ftidy
math/GiNaC
math/R
math/fftw-3-single
math/fftw-3
math/nestedsums
math/octave-forge
math/octave
science/libnc-dap
science/xloops
www/varnish
x11/fluxbox

Assuming gcc42 is capable of building each of the above ports, and that the port authors update these ports to use gcc42, is there a need to keep these old versions of gcc around? It's annoying enough for the user to have to spend a couple hours on an Intel Mac, or many many hours on a slower PowerPC, to compile a single version of gcc. It would be even more annoying if the user wanted to use various different ports, each of which required a different version of gcc.
