[Rcpp-devel] Specifying compiler to use within Rcpp

Hi,

I've got Mac OS X 10.7, which still uses gcc4.2.  I can 
install a separate copy of a newer gcc (e.g. 4.7), but is 
there a way to make Rcpp (and inline) use it while compiling?

I suppose I could use a symbolic link to make gcc refer to 
gcc4.7 everywhere on my system, but that seems like an 
inflexible solution.

Any help appreciated.  Cheers!
Nick
