Hi,
Well that would be an interesting experiment. You may have to limit yourself
to gcc 4.7.x, I haven’t been able to get 4.8 to compile and I think that the old
binutils is too blame. For env you could set CC CXX F77 and FC with the
appropriate x86_64-apple-darwin14-{gcc,g++,gfortran}-4.7.3 value.
I would be interested in your experience if you decide to go ahead.
