it doesn't:
port variants py26-scipy
py26-scipy has the variants:
atlas: Use MacPorts ATLAS libraries
gcc42: Use gcc 4.2 tool chain for building
* conflicts with gcc43 gcc44 gcc45
gcc43: Use gcc 4.3 tool chain for building
* conflicts with gcc42 gcc44 gcc45
[+]gcc44: Use gfortran-mp-4.4 as fortran compiler
* conflicts with gcc42 gcc43 gcc45
gcc45: Use gfortran-mp-4.5 as fortran compiler
* conflicts with gcc42 gcc43 gcc44
... but you probably mean why does it build a gcc at all?
Probably because it requires a fortran compiler to build
(http://www.scipy.org/Installing_SciPy/BuildingGeneral) and Xcode doesn't ship
with one.
