gcc42 hangs

[chameau]

Hi,
I'm using this thread now, as I'm trying to update to gcc 4.3 from 4.2. It's
only for experimenting different compilers with the mex functions in Matlab.

Currently, i have :

-bash-3.2$ gcc --version
i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.2.1 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5577)

Xcode version 3.1.4
Macports version 1.8.2

>sudo port install gcc43 

it hangs at the build... 

Anything new on this issue ? 

Thanks
