Comment(by daq0101@…):

 Brand new MBP 13'' Lion 10.7 with a fresh install of Xcode 4.2 I was able
 to install gcc44 with

 remove the following packages with sudo port uninstall "Blah"

 expat, gcc_select, gettext, libiconv, mpfr, ncurses, ncursesw and xz, gmp,
 openmpi, glpk, ppl, gperf, libmpc //

 Then,

 sudo port install apple-gcc42
 sudo port install gcc44 configure.compiler=apple-gcc-4.2

 I can explain why exactly this works ( I am no expert ) all I did was
 piece together what other people did. Thanks. Now one to getting octave
 working.


 Replying to [ticket:31604 guygurari@…]:

 > When trying to install gcc45 on Lion (10.7.2), the build launches a
 process 'f951' which grows to 4 GB RAM, uses only 5% CPU, and does not
 finish after hours of work.
 >
 > I would attach a log file but I don't know where logs for on-going
 builds are stored.
