Is there likely to be a port of the current gcc trunk soon?

In know this would be a mess, but should we move towards a cleaner version labeling at this point? The 49 vs. 410 label is really not ideal, and probably it already breaks some of the logic which is in place.

I would fully support naming the port gcc-4.10. That's nicer and more consistent with clang. But I don't want to know how many ports need to be changed and revbumped if we want to change all the gcc ports.

That's why I've started with "I know this would be a mess" ;-)

However, I'd guess (would need checking) there are port which rely on the 4? pattern, and these would break anyway. So just leaving all as is, will not come for free neither. Anyway, could be a great occasion to have closer look at the compiler port group, which could serve as sort of an abstraction layer.

This could serve as a good time to change the ports that rely on gcc to use the compilers group. Then changing the compiler names would happen in one place.

The next version of gcc might not even be called "4.10", so we might not even have to worry about "410" versus "4.10":
