Comment (by braumann@…):

 Hmm, to my surprise you were right, once I had rebuild qt4-mac setting
 gcc42 as compiler calling
 {{{
 sudo port install qt4-mac configure.compiler=gcc-4.2
 }}}
 then I again called
 {{{
 sudo port upgrade qt4-creator-mac configure.compiler=gcc-4.2
 }}}
 and - voilà - qt4-creator-mac 2.8.1 could be built.

 For some unknown reason during the building of qt4-creator-mac that
 compiler setting is used which was previously taken for building qt4-mac,
 other settings might be ignored (see above). So I suggest to modify the
 portfile of qt4-mac in order to obligatory select gcc42 there. And maybe
 the mechanism of building qt4-creator-mac also needs some repair, I would
 have expected that a compiler setting using configure.compiler is strictly
 accepted.

 gcc40 anyway is not sufficient for qt4-creator-mac 2.8.1
