You're right! In addition to setting GCC_DEFAULT_VERSION to 4.7, one also needs to adjust the following in Mk/bsd.gcc.mk: . if ${_USE_GCC} == ${GCC_DEFAULT_VERSION} _GCC_PORT:= gcc . else _GCC_PORT:= gcc${V} . endif The most correct way of doing this would be replacing the first line by . if ${_USE_GCC} == 4.6 yes, this solves my problem, thank you. However, it's not portable. When the default is no longer 4.6, but, say 4.7, then one would have to change this to 4.7, right? I understand that one should not just mess with bsd.gcc.mk at will, but would be great if only a single change was needed for situations like mine. Thank you Anton That should then do the right thing; or you could just remove everything except for _GCC_PORT:= gcc${V} Either should work. (I'd love to update GCC_DEFAULT_VERSION to 4.7 one of these days; is the cluster sufficiently recovered for a test run?)
