Synopsis: [patch] lang/gcc48: expose c99 math in 'std' namespace

State-Changed-From-To: open->feedback
State-Changed-By: gerald
State-Changed-When: Sun Feb 23 22:44:50 UTC 2014
State-Changed-Why: 
First of all, sorry for the delay.  There have been a couple of
issues with the lang/gcc ports that I needed to address first and
this has taken longer than I had expected.
 
I would love to expose c99 math to FreeBSD users of GCC.    
  
The proposed patch seems a bit hackish, though, and specific to
the lang/gcc* ports?  Or do you think that could be pushed upstream?

That would be the best approach, first for GCC 4.9 and then we could
look into backporting to GCC 4.8, perhaps GCC 4.7.
