Not yet, I'm thinking about logging everything in a future release but
if you're using the latest pkgutil you can use the --trace option to
add debugging to all scripts during install/remove.

Check your pkgutil version with:

# pkgutil -v

If it's not 1.6 do:

# pkgutil -u pkgutil

Then try with --trace:

# pkgutil --trace -i gcc4core (or whatever the exact name is)

See above.

Since this is a problem with a Blastwave package other than pkgutil I
would recommend you posting on their forum:

I'm sure they will help you further with why gcc4core fails.
