It installs fine on Tiger or Leopard.

Looks like a bug in gcc 3.3. We don't support Panther, do we?

Base still supports 10.3 but I'm guessing llvm probably can't; maybe error out in a 'darwin 7' section? Unless someone wants to try making gcc43 a dependency for llvm on 10.3, see if that works.

I can try that.

I can't try that, because gcc43 does not build on Panther and neither does gcc42.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

gcc41, gcc40 and apple-gcc40 cannot be built on Panther either.

Some of these require odcctools, but odcctools can't be built on Panther currently. It used to work, so making a new port with an older version of odcctools might let us get further.
