For darwin_8_i386 platforms, the gcc, g++ and gfortran used are  
explicitly the "*-dp-4.2" MacPorts versions.

I also ran into a problem with /usr/local stuff confusing the octave  
port.  I had previously installed octave from hpc.sourceforge.net  
(and other third-party builds of gnuplot and AquaTerm).  Completely  
removing those things allowed the MacPorts versions to build (once  
the octave port was fixed to remove the gcc40 dependency for the  
darwin_8_i386 platform).
