    Any port that uses Fortran will be broken by a blanket switch
    to gcc-4.0.0. g77 is no longer a GCC frontend. Gfortran, which
    replaces g77, can handle somewhere around 95% of the Fortran 77
    language and around 90% of the Fortran 95 language.

    If you want to try gcc-4.0.0, download the tar ball and do

    configure --prefix=/usr/local --program-suffix=4 languages=c,c++

    Add CC=gcc4 to C++=g++4 to make.conf and try building a few ports.
