Hi Justin,
With my latest fix, one should be able to do a complete build (including 
installworld + installkernel) with WORLD_CCVER=gcc47 defined in the 
make.conf.

Everything seems to work as expected, but setting gcc47 as the default 
compiler should be considered EXPERIMENTAL by those that want to try it.
