I notice from http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/ that "We currently support
4.x and 5-CURRENT FreeBSD systems for GNOME 1.4 and 2.2. Anything prior
to FreeBSD 4.6 is not supported." while 5-CURRENT uses GCC3.21 as
default. 

Additionally, I have a question on Q2 at
http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq2.html#q2.

"The majority of GNOME 2.2 compilation problems can be solved by making
sure all the necessary GNOME 2.2 components are up-to-date. You may see
compiler errors relating to pthreads (POSIX threads), such as:

undefined reference to 'strerror_r'
           
To fix thread related errors, make sure you have the following compiled
into your kernel:

options     _KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING
           
And make sure if you are tracking -stable or -current, that you do not
have NOLIBC_R set in /etc/make.conf. If you do, remove it, then rebuild
world."


- Is that kernel option also available for 4.7-stable? 
- I comment out that NOLIBC_R option but set NO_OBJC = True in the
/etc/make.conf. Could this matter? Thanks again!
