Good for you. It doesn't help me, unfortunately. My llvm version is 
slightly higher:
gcc version 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 
2336.1.00). It is from xcode-4.2.1.
I wonder if this can be the reason it doesn't work for me.

Concretely, I cannot compile the file scribus/util.cpp with either 
/usr/bin/c++ (which is llvm-g++) or with clang.
With clang, it gives the bogus error message:

In file included from 
/sw/src/fink.build/scribus-x11-1.4.0-2.rc6/scribus-1.4.0.rc6/scribus/desaxe/digester.cpp:20:

                 return 
static_cast<Generator_body<Type>*>(body)->eval(dig, tag, attr);
                                                           ^

         Action_body* body;

This is a known bug in clang that is fixed upstream but not yet in 
Lion's version. Scribus cannot do anything about it.

With /usr/bin/c++, the compilation goes into an infinite loop: it takes 
100% CPU and does nothing.

I can compile the file OK with g++-fsf-4.6 from Fink, but I cannot build 
scribus with gcc-4.6, because the build process insists on placing the 
flag "-arch x86_64" on the compiler line, which is wrong syntax for 
gcc-4.6. It does this already in the cmake configure phase which 
therefore fails, and I have not yet found a way to prevent cmake from 
doing this.
