Summary: Add gcc48 to metis portfilemetis: Add gcc48 variant

Why would we want to add this? We don't usually add variants for random compilers.

Replying to ryandesign@…:

Being that metis is used in a lot of scientific codes, it is very valuable for having different compilers as variants (I did this as well with my "science ports"). Though, looking at the metis file, it seems all kinds of wrong having an openmpi variant (parmetis is the parallel version). I would like to unify all of these types of compilers but have been busy with other things :-/ I'll try to dig out some time to work on this.

gcc48 is most recent stable compiler from gnu. I develop scientific code under MacOS and I need great portability. I know my patch isn't sufficient and could be improve for all gcc version provided by macport. For information, scientifics (around me) developping under MacOS always compile themselves scientific librairies and don't really use macports as they should. Using gcc48 is a strong requirement. But I understand the complexity to provide ports tuned for several compilers... Thanks for your answer. It's maybe a non-usefull contribution but I share it.
