 I'm trying to install pdftk on Yosemite (10.10) using Xcode 6.1 and it
 fails when building gcc47.

 The error log shows that it's experiencing #43978 but the fix given (i.e.
 upgrade to gcc48...) won't work as there is no +gcc48 variant in the pdftk
 port
 I tried to manually modify the port to add this variant but it failed
 compiling pdftk invoking java errors (which seems "normal" from what I've
 been reading on different tickets, for example #40058).

 Thus, would it be possible either to upgrade pdftk so that it could use
 gcc48 (but it seems quite difficult) or patch gcc47 so that it compiles on
 yosemite too (which seems easier) ?

 I would need it working within a week and would prefer not to instal pdftk
 from outside of MacPorts as suggested in #40058

 Thanks

 I'm putting here #44274 as reference to the gcc47-on-Yosemite ticket and
 reformatting description.
