checking for MPFR... no configure: error: GMP with MPFR support is required to build f95 the gmp ebuild disables mpfr support on sparc, but this will be required for the fortran compiler in gcc-4.
I tried building gmp after commenting out the line that disabled mpfr support and it now appears to work. However, gcc still doesn't see it as being available.
see bug #105288 - may require new mpfr library
if this is gfortran then under Software Using MPFR - here is where to go http://www.mpfr.org/
Mike added dev-libs/mpfr

we're going to need arch KEYWORDing on the mpfr package emerging with FEATURES=test should be sufficient ... the gmp/mpfr maintainers keep a good test-suite with their packages
I have marked this ~ppc64 for now. Compile and tests were fine. If this needs to be stable instead of testing, please re-add ppc64 to bug and I will re-keyword. Thanks!
Added ~sparc keyword.
I experienced the same problems on x86 architecture. After emerging dev-libs/mpfr gcc-4.0.2-r2 configure did fine, now it's compiling. Is dev-libs/mpfr a new dependancy of gcc? So shouldn't dev-libs/mpfr be added to gcc-4.0.2-r2 dependancies?

mpfr seems to blow up on s390 with illegal instructions :(
Looks like everyone has done this already.
