The GPL does not prohibit binary distribution.

Yes, setting configure.compiler to "macports-gcc-4.8" automatically adds a library dependency on gcc48, although it's not clear to me why a dependency on libgcc wouldn't be sufficient.
Be aware that manually choosing your own compiler is not supported.
