Darwin 9 PPC tester ?

[Chris Jones]

Ah, right. I was just looking at 

http://packages.macports.org/clang-3.4/

And saw the last versions had a Darwin 9 PPC tarball. Are you saying it builds but does not function properly ?

In any case, for now its not a big deal. GCC9 is a beta so things can easily change.

I had to blacklist gcc-4.2 to get it to build on intel 10.6 (so fallback to MPs clang-3.4) but I am not sure what this blacklist will do on Darwin 9 PPC. It might try and fallback to a gcc build which will then cause problems with a dependency loop. I am hoping instead it also defaults to clang-3.4 (or we can convince it to). Its also true that gcc9/libgcc-devel is only a snapshot, so things might improve in before a final release (which is why right now I don’t think its a big deal).
