Probably that your ports collection is out of date...? In the current
ports tree, there is lang/python (2.3, default), and lang/python2.2,
lang/python2.1.

Updating the tree might also fix your gcc problem (you could install
lang/gcc33 then). Unfortunately, you cannot specify the gcc version like
the python version yet.

If you can't build gcc from ports, why not install a package?

pkg_add -r -v gcc33

So, does the port work if you use USE_PYTHON=3D2.2+? I checked the
synopsis documentation, but it does not say which python versions are
supported.
