Comment(by ryandesign at macports.org):

 Because gcj34 and gcc34 are old and don't build on our supported versions
 of Mac OS X, I removed support for those build mechanisms in r38135. The
 port still builds fine with gcc41 or gcc42.

 I still find myself using pdftk on occasion, and although I have been a
 little concerned that there has not been a release in almost two years, it
 still works for me, so I don't want to remove it.

 I'm not aware of the "obsolete I/O mechanisms", "other problems" or
 "erratic behaviour" you refer to. Can you be more specific?
