Re-add lang/gcc42, which is still used in some installations via libobjc.

Remove the lang/gcc42 port (GCC 4.2) which does not have any user in
the tree any more and has been obsoleted by several newer versions of
GCC -- ones that actually build on FreeBSD 10.x out of the box and
provide better support for newer CPUs, better optimizations overall,
and more advanced language support.

GCC 4.6 aka lang/gcc or lang/gcc46 is the new default version of GCC
in ports.

The system compiler version of GCC 4.2 is still available up to and
including FreeBSD 9.x and users of USE_GCC=4.2+ will be transparently
redirected to lang/gcc if, or rather when, this changes.

Remove support for the Java frontend and library where users are better
served using GCC 4.4 or later.  This makes this port a whole lot cheaper
and also allows us to remove the (somewhat bogus) check for lang/gcc295
as well as WANT_GNOME.

No longer download Objective-C related files which we don't actually use.

Set MAINTAINER unconditionally.

Set PORTNAME, COMMENT, and LATEST_LINK unconditionally as opposed to
using ?=.

Add powerpc to NOT_FOR_ARCHS. [1]

No longer include the Fortran frontend.  This version has been super-
seded by later ports, and the main purpose of lang/gcc42 is being on
par with the GCC 4.2-based system compiler recent versions of FreeBSD
feature.

Remove gcc-testsuite from DISTFILES, along with the post-build and
check targets.  This reduces disk and bandwidth consumptions for a
feature (apparently) never used.

Update program names to account for GCC 4.2.
