Download the gcc-2.7.2.1.tar.gz from your nearest mirror. Read
the INSTALL. Build it and install it to /usr/local (_reading_ the
/usr/ports/lang/pgcc/patches/patch-aa may help you to install).
/usr/bin/gcc is just a link to /usr/bin/cc (g++ is linked to c++).
If you remove the /usr/bin/gcc, the next gcc in the path will be
the one from /usr/local/bin. This way, you'll have to compilers cc
and gcc. If you build the pgcc-port after it, you'll have all three
-- cc (2.6.3), gcc (2.7.2.1), and pgcc (2.7.2p) -- this is what I
have here.
