	How droll! The command gcc --version returns i686-apple-darwin10-gcc-4.2.1 
(GCC) 4.2.1, and other stuff. Oh, well.

	I've discovered that gcc44 downloads in pieces, but leaves out testsuite and 
ada. Might I fool the port build by installing those two missing parts in the 
distfiles/gcc44/ directory after a fetch but before building? I've interrupted 
the compile and will remove the build parts if that works.
