if $CXX is set to 'gcc' (what seems to be the default on gentoo 1.2 boxes) configuration of dev-libs/gmp complains: configure: error: C++ compiler not available to fix this, variable CXX has to be set to "g++" (btw, why is it set to "gcc" on 1.2?)
additional infos: all gcc 2 ebuilds set $CXX to 'gcc' in /etc/env.d/05gcc; gcc 3 ebuilds set it to 'g++'. why isn't it always set to 'g++'?
Err, it was me in a braindead stage. Should already be fixed, please just fix it local for yourself ...
can we close out this bug, jukka?
yes, it's definitely fixed.
...and (sh|c)ould be closed... ;-)
Ok, great.
