Darren Weber:
Is there a general consensus, for the majority of ports without any
specific build dependency, on which version of gcc is preferred or
recommended for MacPorts?
I'd go with /usr/bin/gcc, as a generic recommendation.
(whether using MacPorts or just general on Mac OS X...)
It also happens to be the default for ${configure.cc} :
switch -exact "${os.platform} ${os.major}" {
"darwin 7" { set compiler gcc-3.3 }
"darwin 8" { set compiler gcc-4.0 }
"darwin 9" { set compiler gcc-4.0 }
"darwin 10" { set compiler gcc-4.2 }
default { set compiler gcc }
}
Which means that the majority of ports don't need to do
anything particular, but just go with the default $CC.
