gcc42 target bootstrap runs forever?

[skip at pobox.com]

I executed sudo port upgrade active this morning.  It made it through
several different port upgrades, but when it got to gcc42 it just seemed to
run forever.  I don't know how long I let it run before killing it, but it
had to be at least two-three hours.

I'm going to try installing gcc43 instead.  Should the gcc42 upgrade have
worked?  I've got MacPorts 1.6.0 and Xcode 2.5 installed on a Powerbook G4
running OSX 10.4.11.

Thx,
