Yes, atlas has a bunch of compiler variants. I would love for most or all of them to go away. But part of atlas needs fortran so it needs to deal with that at least. And I believe Vince argued that for atlas and other performance-critical scientific software it is beneficial to be able to

Proposal: Since it seems that we are flat-out disallowing gcc being used as a C/C++ compiler, I think it's time to do some clean up of the code: 1) Rename gccXY to gcc-X.Y 2) Rename +gccXY variants to +gfortranXY 3) Start moving away from configure.compiler=macports-gcc* I think it's

2014-10-01 Thread Sean Farley
