This has no real meaning - it just says that you can download Xcode in parts. In fact the most recent Xcode is a regression - up until now clang (most recent compiler available for OS X from Apple) was installed by default, but that is no longer the case. > Can we now lift the 'it has to pass g++ 4.2.1' restriction? > The above is still gcc 4.2, Apple won't move from there due to GPL-v3 tainting any more recent version of gcc. Our best hope is clang. Did you check Rcpp against clang?
