Indeed I can run gcc from system (2.95.4 in my case), which is installed to
/usr/ and any of gcc from ports which installs itself into /usr/local/ (for
example, 4.0)

However I cannot have at the same time lang/gcc34 and lang/gcc40 (or any
other two version from ports) because they both install files in the same
place somewhere in /usr/local/. Is there a way to specify a different dir,
say /usr/local/gcc34, /usr/local/gcc40 etc?

I only see one solution now: get original gcc tarbal and configure it with
different prefix, however I am looking for a 'right way' with ports.


PS: running 4.11-STABLE
