For what it is worth, I have built Sage 4.1.1.rc0 with gcc 4.4.0 on SPARC. Pari built fine. In theory, setting CC=/path/to/what/C/compiler/you/want CXX=/path/to/what/C++/compiler/you/want SAGE_FORTRAN=/path/to/what/Fortran/compiler/you/want should allow you to use any gcc. But in practice I don't think it will. I've tried doing this with the Sun compiler, and find that some parts of Sage build with gcc even though CC is specified as the Sun compiler. Hence some parts of Sage are ignoring whatever CC is set to. The only one I can see to use a specific version of gcc is to make sure that version is the first gcc in your path. Then it will be found before any other version.
