Debian wheezy has gcc 4.6 which can be installed from the default repos (the package gcc-4.6) alongside GCC 4.7. Once installed you should be able to run:
export CXX=g++-4.6 export CC=gcc-4.6 ./configure Then do the rest of the normal build (I'd recommend some flags like --enable-optimize if you're going to be putting the resulting binary into production). The Mesosphere mesos debian wheezy packages are currently built that way. I don't see a JIRA about the gcc 4.7 thing currently, I'll ping the person who has been doing some research into enabling it and see what the status looks like (I suspect it won't land, if it is going to happen, until Mesos 0.23).
