This fixed it.

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.2

I'm on SL 10.6.8 and XCode 4.2, 2011 i7 MBP

As I told you in the other ticket, don't make such a symlink. Please delete the symlink again.

What does the config.log say?

It is unusual that it decided to use /usr/bin/gcc-4.2 as the compiler, if that did not exist; indeed, it is not expected for any gcc to exist in Xcode 4.2 anymore. Apple now only ships llvm-gcc-4.2 and clang.

Well I'm not in a position to say now, having since rerun it with the hack. Are you talking about sources/rsync.macports.org/release/base/config.log? If so its been nuked by the successful update. You want me to uninstall it and have another go?

You could remove the symlink, then force MacPorts to try selfupdate again. "sudo port -f selfupdate". If it fails then you can look at the config.log.
