Do I need both gcc-4.2 and gcc-4.3?

Somehow I've ended up with 2 copies of gcc from ports in addition to
gcc-3.4 in the base system.
pkg_info suggests that only gcc-4.3 is needed:
curlew:/home/mike% pkg_info -Rx gcc-4
Information for gcc-4.2.5_20081126:
Information for gcc-4.3.4_20090419:
Required by:
fftw-2.1.5_5
I'm sure I haven't chosen to install fftw-2.1.5_5, and pkg_info -R
doesn't show any other ports needing it. I was wondering if I could
safely deinstall fftw and both the gcc-4 packages but wondered if
pkg_info only shows the run dependencies and not the build
dependencies. I don't mind the disk space needed but portupgrade
sometimes results in having to upgrade 2 copies of gcc which is quite
time consuming.
