What OS version are you using? You probably need to upgrade to the latest XCode release for your system. On a Tiger machine of mine:

% gcc --version
powerpc-apple-darwin8-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5370)

Also, gcc is being invoked as just 'gcc' rather than '/usr/bin/gcc-4.0', so it looks like you're running an older version of MacPorts, and should upgrade with sudo port selfupdate.

Sorry, I should have specified my OS and MacPorts versions:

# uname -a
Darwin shiny.local 7.9.0 Darwin Kernel Version 7.9.0: Wed Mar 30 20:11:17 PST 2005; root:xnu/xnu-517.12.7.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC  Power Macintosh powerpc

# port selfupdate

MacPorts base version 1.600 installed

Downloaded MacPorts base version 1.600

The MacPorts installation is not outdated and so was not updated
selfupdate done!

It's a 10.3.9 system. (I normally run Linux on this machine so I haven't bought OSX updates.)

PS, I have XCode 1.5, which I believe is the latest version supported under OSX 10.3.

I don't have a Panther machine to test on, but here's a patch to try. It will install and use GCC 4.0.4 from MacPorts.

Further investigation reveals that -no-cpp-precomp is an obsolete option. It was used in GCC < 3.3 to select what is now the default behaviour, and does not exist in FSF's GCC 4. I'm not sure why it doesn't cause problems on 10.4 and 10.5, but I've attempted to fix this on 10.3 by explicitly using gcc-3.3 (r37676). Please try the updated port and report back.

My apologies for the long delay!

I just tried the updated port and it works perfectly.

Thanks very much!!

Great, marking fixed.
