New description:

 I have the following gcc46 version installed:

 {{{
     gcc46 @4.6-20110325_1+gfortran
 }}}

 If I try to select gcc46 using the following command:

 {{{
     sudo port select --set gcc mp-gcc46
 }}}

 Then I get the following error:

 {{{
     Selecting 'mp-gcc46' for 'gcc' failed: could not create new link
 "/opt/local/bin/gcj": target "/opt/local/bin/gcj-mp-4.6" doesn't exist
 }}}

 I assume that the problem occurs because I don't have the 4.6 version of
 GCC java installed. This is partly because the +gfortran and +java
 variants are incompatible (according to macports).
