Really interesting post and replies, thankyou. I love it when something
provokes the considered responses of extremely well informed people.
I would just say that I really don't consider the OP's concerns to be
tinfoilhattery. In light of recent revelations, it would actually be
irresponsible to be

Hi -- I've been trying to install GCC 4.6.1 from the Portfile that someone
submitted to the ticket requesting that the port be updated, here:
https://trac.macports.org/ticket/29184

Hi -- the port of GCC 4.6 has been at prerelease BETA for a long time, now.
Is it considered usable?
Is anyone using it for C++ development on a Mac?
Are they using the C++11 features successfully?
