Nah, this won't have an effect on most ports (which doesn't mean it's  
a good idea to use it).
In a perfect world (tm), the port will react to:
`port install foo configure.compiler=FOO'
where FOO might be something like "gcc-4.0" (default on 10.4 and  
10.5), "gcc-3.3", "macports-gcc-4.2", etc.
See [1] for all available options. (and of course even if this  
succeeds, it's still a bug)

PS: Does stellarium really require the gcc 4.0 from MacPorts?
