upgrading gcc44 not working properly?

Hi,
I installed gcc44 when it was listed as Beta / "experimental" back in
March. gcc-mp-4.4 --version :
gcc-mp-4.4 (GCC) 4.4.0 20090313 (experimental)
I saw that it is no longer listed in the ports as beta (4.5 now is)
and so I tried
sudo port upgrade gcc44
However, the only thing that got upgraded was apparently
gmp, lzmautils, mpfr, libiconv and gperf
gcc/g++ were not upgraded (are there no changes?), nor were java or
gfortran installed (for some reason when the "betas" are made of gcc,
these are included only as "variants" even though they are considered
part of the actual gcc distribution by the gnu developers). Even if
gcc does not change, it seems like the "upgrade" command should
install any of the items that are no longer variants in the non-beta
installation, so that the port is standardized.
Thanks,
