as advised on this mailing list. i added this line in "/etc/mk.conf":
WANT_GCC41=yes i also noted that "/usr/lib" has 2 directories: gcc34 and gcc41 and on my newly installed 1.8.1 release, "gcc --version" gave "gcc 3.4". so i fetched the sources using cvsup using my 1.8-release supfile. then i did this: # cd /usr/src # make buildworld # make buildkernel # make installkernel # make installworld # make upgrade # reboot this took 6 hours in total. and after reboot, i see "gcc --version" gave "gcc 3.4" :-( what the heck ? why i am not getting "gcc 4.1" based system ? (BTW, one thing that surprised me is during this whole system rebuild, i did NOT get any error. seems strange to a Linux based user like me) -- http://arnuld.blogspot.com/
