No. I'm really talking about lang/gcc43.

Ok, but I guess we have two cases:
a) OOO requires gcc43 (either directly or through another dependency): 
then I guess gcc43 should be build before OOO;
b) OOO does not require gcc43 at all: then I see no reason for it to be 
upgraded.

In any case I see no point in building it after OOO. Perhaps I'm missing 
something?

(Again, you can substitute OOO and gcc with other ports in different 
scenarios).
