 % sudo port select gcc mp-gcc4
 Selecting 'mp-gcc45' for 'gcc' succeeded. 'mp-gcc45' is now active.
 % gfortran --version

 % man gfortran
 No manual entry for gfortran

 % man gfortran-mp-4.5
 # This works!

 The problem may exist for some other port groups like e.g. python. The
 same problem exists for gcc as for gfortran - 'man gcc' gives the 'apple
 gcc' man page.
