Errors building gcc44 under MacOsX

[David Epstein]

I run MacOsX 10.6.8 on a MacBook Pro. The System Profiler says:
  Model Name:	MacBook Pro
  Model Identifier:	MacBookPro8,2
  Processor Name:	Intel Core i7
  Processor Speed:	2.2 GHz
  Number of Processors:	1
  Total Number of Cores:	4
  L2 Cache (per Core):	256 KB
  L3 Cache:	6 MB
  Memory:	8 GB
  Boot ROM Version:	MBP81.0047.B0E
  SMC Version (system):	1.69f1
  Serial Number (system):	C02FP475DF91
  Hardware UUID:	6DA5EF38-F18A-5578-80DD-396EAB563725


Here is the error message from port:
sudo port install gcc44

Log for gcc44 is at:
/opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_lang_gcc44/gcc44/main.log
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
To report a bug, see <http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets>

I was actually trying to install octave under macports. This called for
gcc44, and then it stumbled. Maybe I should install it some other way.

Thanks for any help.

Here are the last lines of the main.log file referred to in the error
message. I hope this includes everything of importance. I tried to upload
the whole of main.log to Nabble, but Nabble said it was too big. Also, I
wasn't sure whether uploading to Nabble was the right thing to do:
