Comment(by from.macports@…):

 Here's the commands which worked for me to switch from a failing install
 of pdftk using gcc45, to a successful install of pdftk using gcc42:
 {{{
 % cd
 }}}
 [Because I started off deep in the /opt/local directory tree, and 'port
 install' failed because the paths were too long.]
 {{{
 sudo port clean pdftk
 sudo port install pdftk +gcc42
 }}}
 [Clean up the failed pdftk install, then redo the install specifying the
 gcc42 variant.]

 Experienced mac ports users will know all this. But I'm not an experienced
 user, and I'm hoping this note will help someone who encounters the same
 pdftk build failure and wants help getting to success.
