ENOPARSE on that last line, sir.

That USE_GCC line shouldn't be creating any sort of BROKEN assignment. 
And it shouldn't choke if gcc > 3.2 (or gcc > 2.7) is installed.

The only thing I'm confused about is why openoffice-1.1 has an explicit 
BUILD_DEPENDS on gcc32, rather than just using USE_GCC=3.2.

However, you are most certainly correct in that when I deinstalled 
gcc32, make clean went smoothly and quickly.
