gcc43 build fails for me on alpha,
but gcc44 builds fine. Is Mk/bsd.gcc.mk a good
place to overwrite the default?

In Mk/bsd.gcc.mk it says:

	# gfortran43 from lang/gcc43 is the default for now.

Can I change the default for gfortran44? And what negative
consequences might this cause?

gcc43 is required to run
	lapack, lapack95
and to build
	dbus, e2fsprogs-libuuid.

please advise
many thanks
anton
