Comment:

 I had problems updating the port to 1.45 (it would not build). Then I had
 problems on some systems getting the existing 1.44 to build anymore, which
 I blamed on changes to the gcc ports that I had hoped would get ironed
 out. Months later that has not yet occurred, so I have to accept that
 those systems (Leopard and Tiger) will unfortunately no longer be able to
 use pdftk as a result.

 The attached patch updates the port to 2.01; removes the gcc42 variant
 (#34275) since it had previously only been needed on older systems and we
 want to remove the gcc42 port (#33919); removes a check for build problems
 that affected gcc42 (#13553); defaults to gcc47 as other ports now do; and
 prevents installation on Leopard and earlier because depending on the
 system I tested the build either fills up the disk with swap files and
 runs out of memory on the first gcj invocation (PowerPC) or every gcj
 invocation crashes (Intel).

 I am not yet committing the patch because I have not yet tested whether
 the gcc45 and gcc47 variants both work on Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain
 Lion. If you would like to test the patch and let me know your experiences
 on your system, that would be helpful.
