Inspecting the source code of the latest Darwin release (8.1), I see
that the GCC 4.0 version shipped is
4.0.0 20041026 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 4061)
Are there plans to upgrade this? The official GNU version 4.0 includes
bugfixes commited after 2004/10/26. I'm asking because Darwin 8.1 is
6 months newer than the GCC code it ships with.
You can build more recent versions of the Apple compiler from the cvs
code. Of course cautions about pre-release software apply. For
details of accessing the cvs see http://gcc.gnu.org.
To get Apple code, you need to use a tag to extract cvs code.
Currently tags like apple-ppc-50xx get code which has been merged
with the gcc-4.0.0 release code. It is Apple's practice to freeze
compiler code several months before system releases.
If building the cvs code is daunting, you can find a binary for apple-
gcc-5017 at http://www.swarm.org/wiki/Swarm:_MacOS_X_binaries
