On second thought, I'm not sure why I thought to suggest that other
than you'll probably need it later (ie. if you want to compile
RcppArmadillo, which is what tripped me up) -- Rcpp doesn't require a
"working" fortran compiler, I'd imagine ;-)

Maybe?

You didn't happen to install an updated gcc from macports, did you?
What's the output of:

  $ which g++

and

  $ g++ --version

from the command line?
