--- Comment #1 from Rainer Hurling <rhurlin at gwdg.de> ---
Just a note to the need for GCC:

GCC is not necessarily needed to use OpenMP. These days, OpenMP can also be
done by the CLANG compiler (basically using -lomp instead of -lgomp). A working
example is found in the port graphics/darktable.

But, GCC _is needed_ for the Fortran functionalities. As far, as I know, there
is no alternate in the LLVM/Clang world until today. And many of R's packages
do need Fortran!
