According to my understanding of the situation, GPLv3 code is not accepted into the project and that means we're stuck with gcc 4.2, which has already reached its EOL. The way I see it we /desperately/ need a new compiler for the base system. Having GPLv3 stuff in Ports is all right, so getting the base system to compile was the most important step. Now that it does I think the change should be made as soon as all the supported architectures work with clang. -- A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text.
