MacPorts ports do not use the compiler you've gcc_select'd. They use the compiler the port or MacPorts specifies. The reason why we do this is explained at length here: https://trac.macports.org/wiki/UsingTheRightCompiler Some ports may inadvertently use the compiler you've gcc_select'd; if you find such a port, please file a ticket so this problem can be fixed. _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
