This is the XCode version of the compilers. You should use MacPorts to
build gcc44, gcc45, or gcc46, and then use port select to activate one of
those versions as the primary compiler version. For example:
sudo port install gcc44
sudo port select gcc mp-gcc44
(you can use gcc45 instead if you want). Then, make sure that
/opt/local/bin is in your PATH before /usr/bin. You can test this via:

If you get /usr/bin/gcc instead of /opt/local/bin/gcc above, you have a
problem with your PATH definition, and you should add
export PATH=/opt/local/bin\:$PATH
at the end of your ~/.bashrc file. By default, the MacPorts installation
should add that line at the end of your ~/.bash_profile or ~/.profile file,
so I'm not sure why it wouldn't work for you.
