I don't know that we're playing "games" with which libstdc++ gcc uses at link

time.  Instead of having multiple copies of libstdc++ lying around, you now

have one, and it's either built from gcc-4.8 (the libstdcxx-devel port) or from

gcc-4.7 (the libstdcxx port).  It lives as ${prefix}/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib, and

is picked up by g++-mp-XX by way of their libstdc++.dylib symlinks.



Additionally, we hope to eventually move this libstdc++ on top of libc++abi

instead of libsupc++, so it can co-exist with the host libc++ and libstdc++ in

the same address space (users seem to do mixing of the C++ runtimes which is

what instigated the libstdcxx port to begin with).



As for the no-runtime-stubs.patch patch, that is *NOT* used to build gcc47. 

That is only used in the process of building libstdc++.6.dylib in the libstdcxx

port, and it is done in order to intentionally not have the resulting

libstdc++.dylib link against the libgcc runtime dynamically.  The gcc

buildsystem is so convoluted that this seemed to be the easiest way to ensure

that the resulting libstdc++.dylib picked up its gcc runtime statically.
