Comment:

 lua-numlua now depends on gcc43 as of r57800. The reason it depends on a
 gcc port at all is because it needs a fortran compiler; Apple doesn't
 provide one. Variants for different gcc versions could be added; this
 would be a good idea, even. But the port's current strategy of hardcoding
 the compiler name in the patchfile would then have to be changed.
