Why do you suspect that?

The only change in MacPorts 2.5.0 is that it keeps track of which C++ standard library ports are using. 2.5.0 neglected to notice a few cases where it was possible to infer which C++ library was used when the port did not specify it. That's fixed in 2.5.1. So 2.5.1 might not consider gcc49 to be broken and to need a reinstall.

However nothing in 2.5.0 or 2.5.1 should have broken the compilation of gcc, so the build failure has a different cause.
