Beware! Even if you will be able to force gcc-4.6 to be used and thus
obtain OpenMP-3.1 at the compilation stage, the libgomp.so.1, which
will be used at run-time, will be OpenMP-3.0 from the base gcc-4.2
(/usr/lib/libgomp.so.1 on my FreeBSD-8.0 system). Also, as a bonus,
you may be exposed to ancient bugs from the gcc-4.2 openmp
implementation. For me, personally, it is memory leak as described in
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2009-05/msg00427.html
Fixed in gcc-4.3, but gcc-4.3 never was nor will be in base.
Thus... For obtain the proper openmp you will either limit yourself
to openmp-3.0 from gcc-4.2 and workaround known bugs, or make a black
magic dance for override and "unsteal" the libgomp (e.g. using
libmap.conf) and have maintenance problem every time when gcc version
changes (and, therefore, changes the directory name, where gcc
libraries live).
