 graphics/ImageMagick built without problems in my SunOS 5.11 bulk build
 using lang/gcc46. Could it be that your gcc 4.7 is not configured
 correctly? I can't believe that a newer gcc4 suddenly lost support for
 the visibility attribute.
 
 Gcc 4.x needs some variant of objdump to be able to detect whether the
 visibility attribute can be supported. This is why lang/gcc44 and
 lang/gcc46 set this on SunOS:
 CONFIGURE_ENV+=                OBJDUMP=/usr/sfw/bin/gobjdump
 
 (Admittedly, this may not work on SunOS variants that don't have sfw or
 don't have objdump installed.)
