Most of the libgcc's you showed are normal and expected to be  
present. However these are not:

Looks like you have a copy of gcc 4.2.3 installed in /usr/local.  
Things installed in /usr/local often conflict with MacPorts so it's  
not recommended to have anything in /usr/local while using MacPorts.  
To see if this is the problem, rename /usr/local to /usr/local-off,  
clean the port you were having trouble with, and try installing it  
again.
