Comment (by ryandesign):

 The name of the port is "apple-gcc42". The name of one of the programs it
 installs is "gcc-apple-4.2". The name of this compiler in MacPorts, for
 the purposes of the `configure.compiler` variable, is apple-gcc-4.2. This
 naming confusion was perhaps not planned well at the time, but it's
 probably too late to change things now.

 There is no reason to try to tell MacPorts to use the Apple gcc 4.2
 compiler, because that is what it is already doing on Tiger by default.

 The problem is not Intel- or PowerPC-specific. It's a well-known problem
 of Tiger's development tools (the linker, I guess) that it does not allow
 the compatibility version to be zero. It is an error for the developers of
 kerberos to be specifying a compatibility version of zero, but they may
 not know or care since the developer tools on Leopard and later no longer
 have that limitation.

 That is why I'm asking you to try a newer linker provided by MacPorts. If
 you had apple-gcc42 installed without the bootstrap variant, you should
 already have the ld64 port installed, which is why I suspect you have
 apple-gcc42 installed with the bootstrap variant, and should reinstall it
 without that variant.
