I briefly ran MacPorts configured to use gcc 14 on 10.6.8 powerpc with libc++ 7.1 (Iain’s version with minor tweaks). It worked fine, as I recall (of course, C++23 won’t be supported, headers are too old). On recent macOS everything breaks down though on system headers parsing. Maybe gcc upstream fixed that since I tried last time; I gave up back then.
