New description:

 gnustep-make has this following darwin platform variant

 {{{
 platform puredarwin {
         depends_lib     port:gcc40
         configure.args-append  --with-library-combo=gnu-gnu-gnu \
                                CC=gcc-dp-4.0
 }
 }}}

 if I do "port install gnustep-make", gcc40 dependency is built

 However, if I do "port install gnustep-base" then gnustep-make is built
 (since gnustep-base depends
 on it) with the right configure arguments but gcc40 dependency is not
 taken into account (so the build
 fails)
