That fixed the issue. Then I copied back the original content of /usr/local/<br><br>Must I do this procedure (temporarily emptying /usr/local and then copying back original contents) whenever I want to use MacPort to install some software or si this only a problem for gcc?<br>

If I had to guess, you have some items installed within /usr/local that are conflicting with this MacPort.<br>

Right, specifically /usr/local/lib/libgmp.a:<br>

ld: absolute addressing (perhaps -mdynamic-no-pic) used in ___gmpn_add_n from /usr/local/lib/libgmp.a(add_n.o) not allowed in slidable image. Use '-read_only_relocs suppress' to enable text relocs<br>

Because of inevitable interference like this, it's not supported to have anything in /usr/local while using MacPorts. Rename /usr/local to something else, like /usr/local-off, then clean gcc44 (sudo port clean gcc44) and try again. I recommend you do not install software manually e.g. into /usr/local, and instead use MacPorts to install any software you need.<br>
