#7841: A macro to detect real GCC
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 Reporter: andysem | Owner: johnmaddock
     Type: Feature Requests | Status: new
Milestone: To Be Determined | Component: config
  Version: Boost 1.52.0 | Severity: Problem
 Keywords: |
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 Please provide a macro to detect the real GCC. Different compilers try to
 emulate GCC by defining __GNUC__ and similar macros, which makes it
 difficult to work around GCC-specific bugs. The macro can expand to the
 GCC version number, like BOOST_MSVC:

 {{{
 #define BOOST_GCC (__GNUC__ * 10000 + __GNUC_MINOR__ * 100 +
 __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__)
 }}}

 This macro only has to be defined in compiler/gcc.hpp.
