Ok, well now that you have the latest Xcode, you can install what you want. For 
example, open Terminal and type

sudo port install gimp

gimp has many many dependencies and it will take many many hours to build this, 
but hopefully it will complete without errors. If it stops with an error 
somewhere along the way that you're unsure how to resolve, let us know what it 
says.
