Without much ado, our resident gcc expert Alexander Kabaev imported GCC 4.2.0 (2007-05-14, SVN level 124707) into development branch of FreeBSD. This means that FreeBSD 7.0 will ship with a modern C compiler again, and that a lot of ports will not compile on it (unless fixed, of course).

In related news, X.Org 7.2 import to the ports tree should happen in next 24 hours.
