gcc43 won't build as 32 bit

[ndoc2@…]

Just started over with a new install of 1.8.2, hoping to build everything in 32 bit mode on Snow Leopard and a MacBook Pro (intel).

Unfortunately, I am not able to install gcc43, with build_arch i386 in the /opt/local/etc/macports/macports.conf file. Not quite understanding why this shouldn't be possible.

Complaint is the the mpfr.h file is not the correct version, though it is 2.4.2.

Same here, also with build_arch i386 in the /opt/local/etc/macports/macports.conf file on a Snow Leopard machine.

Adding my two cents. I'm attempting to rebuild all of MacPorts in 32 bit mode due to ongoing delays in getting wxWidgets and wxPython working on 64-bit. Unfortunately, this failure of GCC means I now can't do anything. Ack.
