This was just answered again recently:

The GNU FTP server seems to have problems for some users (including me) and 
randomly disconnects in a way that MacPorts doesn't detect that this has 
happened (and MacPorts continues waiting forever for data that will never 
arrive). You could cancel and try again and MacPorts might pick a different 
mirror, but if it picks the GNU FTP server again, it will probably fail again. 
Try downloading the files manually from a MacPorts mirror like 
http://distfiles.macports.org/gcc44/ and putting them where MacPorts expects 
them (in this case, /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/gcc44).
