 Replying to [comment:7 kencu]:
 > try downgrading to texinfo 6.1.0. Worked for me with gcc46.
 That worked for me, too. As on my system texinfo 6.1.0 was still installed
 {{{
 $ port installed texinfo
 The following ports are currently installed:
   texinfo @6.0_1
   texinfo @6.1_0
   texinfo @6.3_0 (active)
 }}}
 I just had to reactivate texinfo 6.1
 {{{
 # port activate texinfo @6.1
 --->  Computing dependencies for texinfo
 --->  Deactivating texinfo @6.3_0
 --->  Cleaning texinfo
 --->  Activating texinfo @6.1_0
 --->  Cleaning texinfo
 }}}
 With that change, gcc47 @4.7.4 rebuilt and installed without issues.
