I would prefer to just document the gcc_select solution, since it solves the problem at hand.

The most up-to-date instructions are at http://www.scipy.org/Installing_SciPy/Mac_OS_X, so those should be updated as well. That said, if a "Macports" section is added there should be a strong disclaimer that it is *not* the recommended way to install numpy/scipy. A good portion of the build problems reported on these lists are related to Fortran on OS X, and a specific gfortran build at http://r.research.att.com/tools/ is recommended for a reason. If a user really wants to use Macports some notes in the docs may help, but let's not give the impression that it's a good/default option for a new user.

Cheers,
