Does anyone know or remember why MP's version of numpy (I use py26-numpy)
requires non-Apple gcc? Why -not- use Apple's GCC? In playing around with
various installs (+gcc44, +universal), reading through debug outputs, and
testing builds, I do not find that fortran is required to compile (except for
tests, which IMHO can be ignored); numpy uses the fortran compiler to link
only, but any GCC can do that just as well. Further, Apple's GCC can easily do
multiple -arch's, making a universal install simple compared with (e.g.) gcc44
-- which requires the use of the muniversal portgroup and some other Portgroup
tweaking. I'm not against using gcc44 (or 43 or 45 or whatever), just
wondering if anyone knows. Thanks! - MLD
