Comment(by jonesc@…):

 I checked with the root 'configure' script, and there is another compiler
 setting for the linker (--with-ld) which I think we need to set as well to
 use gcc4.4 as well. I have a test build running with

 {{{
 variant gfortran description {Adds support for fortran compilation} {
     configure.args-append   --with-cc=gcc-mp-4.4
     configure.args-append   --with-cxx=cpp-mp-4.4
     configure.args-append   --with-f77=gfortran-mp-4.4
     configure.args-append   --with-ld=g++-mp-4.4
     configure.compiler      macports-gcc-4.4
     depends_lib-append      port:gcc44
 }
 }}}

 and I'll report back how that goes.

 I response to your question above, I agree keeping the default port
 setting to use the system compiler makes sense. I would also support
 removing the 'gfortran' variant and renaming it gc44, with gc45 ec.
 variants as well, as this will help testing with new compilers etc.
