New description:

 When building gsl on G4 I get this in '''config.log''':

 {{{
 configure:2931: $? = 1
 configure:2954: checking for C compiler default output file name
 configure:2981: gcc-mp-4.3 -O2 -ftree-vectorize -march=native -O3
 -I/opt/local/include -L/opt/local/lib conftest
 .c  >&5
 cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-march=native"
 configure:2984: $? = 1
 configure:3022: result:
 configure: failed program was:
 | /* confdefs.h.  */
 | #define PACKAGE_NAME "gsl"
 | #define PACKAGE_TARNAME "gsl"
 | #define PACKAGE_VERSION "1.12"
 | #define PACKAGE_STRING "gsl 1.12"
 | #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT ""

 | int
 | main ()

 |   ;
 |   return 0;
 | }
 configure:3029: error: C compiler cannot create executables
 See `config.log' for more details.

 }}}

 This happens as the gcc43 variant has '''-march=native''' in
 '''configure.cflags''' that is an option only valid for i386 architecture.


 I suggest either removing it (that I did) or selectively enabling it for
 i386 or either removing it for PPC with a specific variant.
