texlive_base failed to build

Sounds like some part of the texlive_base build process is ignoring when
port sets CC to /usr/bin/gcc-4.0, but only when compiling that one file.
Since it's using just a bare 'gcc' it's picking up your MacPorts-installed
gcc43 which doesn't support the -ObjC++ option (that option is only
available in Apple's gcc).

For now, you should be able to get it to build by using gcc_select to use
gcc40, though your '-l' output above doesn't show it, so make sure you have
the current gcc_select port (0.1_1).
