I know 4.6 has it (I've installed it and used it), but the last time I
installed 4.6, _that_ was the current developer version and gfortran was
only available as a variant.  Since it's now among the stable releases, I
didn't know if MacPorts built gfortran into the standard build without
needing to specify a specific variant.

Since I use the Fortran compiler extensively to build the software I use
every day, and the OP's email address suggests a similar field to mine,
I'll post a walkthrough for how to use MacPorts to set a Mac up to use
computational modelling software: http://jswails.wikidot.com/mac-os-x.
 Hopefully it's helpful there (since the emails are not particularly
helpful when it comes to debugging the issues).

All the best,
Jason
