 Replying to [comment:3 kjell.konis@…]:
 > Message to committer: I changed the default compiler to gcc45.  If gcc46
 or gcc47 would be more appropriate please feel free to change.

 > The attached patch removes the llvm-gcc42 variant and make gcc45 the
 default.  This was on my list of changes for R 3.0.0 which is due in April
 but it looks like llvm-gcc42 is twisting my arm.  The patch also removes
 tcltk from the default dependencies to (kind of) address bug #37107 and
 properly sets OBJCXX in etc/Makeconf to address bug #35845.

 FYI, on my system, I had to add the following to the gcc47 variant:

     configure.cflags-append -DOS_OBJECT_USE_OBJC=0

 Otherwise, the C compiler ends up trying to parse an Objective-C header
 file through some transitive inclusion chain.  Perhaps there's another way
 to effect the same thing, but since a patch is pending already....
