+I guess they package CLooG 0.16 as cloog-ppl.
+
+But I dont think I want to switch to that as it's still considered

+
+ From GCC-4.7 prerequisites.html:
+
+CLooG-PPL version 0.15 or CLooG 0.16:
+Necessary to build GCC with the Graphite loop optimizations. There
+are two versions available. CLooG-PPL 0.15 as well as CLooG 0.16.
+The  former is the default right now. It can be downloaded from
+ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/infrastructure/ as cloog-ppl-0.15.tar.gz.
+
+CLooG 0.16 support is still in testing stage, but will be the
+default in future GCC releases. It is also available at
+ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/infrastructure/ as cloog-0.16.1.tar.gz.
