I realize I asked this a bit ago about qemu, and received a very reasonable big caution regarding any attempt to combine gcc of any version on a system set up with LibCxxOnOlderSystems...
but I just thought I'd mention that a few more fairly common ports appear to be failing to install without access to gcc, so this might turn out to be a problem. gimp octave ... more I don't know about yet? $ sudo port install gimp2 +quartz ---> Computing dependencies for gimp2 ---> Dependencies to be installed: babl gegl libopenraw libspiro lua w3m gimp-help-en gsed pngcrush libwmf py27-pygtk py27-numpy gcc6 libgcc webkit-gtk py27-simplejson in gimp's case, it pulls in py27-numpy that seems to want to pull in gcc6 no matter what variants I try. $ port info py27-numpy py27-numpy @1.11.1 (python, math) Variants: atlas, clang37, gcc49, gcc5, gcc6, gcc7, [+]gfortran, llvm, openblas, universal Description: The core utilities for the scientific library scipy for Python Homepage: https://github.com/numpy/numpy Build Dependencies: gcc6, clang-3.7 octave has what seems to be a hard build dep for gcc6 directly, even if I select the +clang37 variant... and letting gcc6 start building, it certainly links against libstdc++ (in the freshly built libgcc), which will blow everything up. So this could turn out to be a hard choice for systems set up like this, I guess, unless Jeremy has a fancy trick up his sleeve. At the moment, it appears you can either get c++11 ports, OR any ports which require gcc, but not both. But then I see "-std=gnu++11" in this long line, which puzzles me a bit...
