Comment(by illogic-al@…):

 You already have gcc 4.2. so adding it as a dependency isn't required.
 Macports requires the latest version of xcode which, on leopard has gcc42.
 What I do need to do is to say "compile this port with this version of
 gcc", but I don't really know how (good idea for a ticket) :-)

 For tiger apple's gcc4.2 (provided by the apple-gcc42 port) will be
 necessary but the version in macports won't work, it doesn't install a c++
 compiler. I've submitted an updated Portfile so that those on tiger can
 install apple's gcc4.2: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/16666. That
 doesn't seem to be going anywhere however. I think it's pointless to force
 something that currently doesn't work into the portfile (kdepimlibs won't
 compile w/ the macports current version of apple-gcc42).
