How is this different than say having a releng4 system with gcc41 installed and USE_GCC=3.2+? gcc41 would be used as would gcc42 when it came out - as both satisfy the "3.2+" specification. While it might be nice to be able to specify a newest GCC version limit we do not have that support today. But we do now the highest version number to start with - the highest version encoded in bsd.gcc.mk. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org)
