    11The way MacPorts is set up, if we want to add and use gcc13 as the new default gcc version, that will be OK when the build calls for gcc13. You would build libgcc13, and then gcc13, and then be on your way.

    3 However, if all the intervening gccs (8-12) exist in MacPorts, building gcc7 will become very very onerous. To build (or revbump) gcc7 you would now need to build libgcc13, libgcc12, libgcc11, libgcc10, libgcc9, libgcc8, and then finally libgcc7.

    55All those intervening libgcc versions (8-12) are pretty much useless, but they still would all need to be built as per our libgcc structure. It would like a week or more.
