Comment (by kencu):
My default 10.6.8 system is set up with LibcxxOnOlderSystems, using
libc++, and the default compiler is set to clang-3.9. On that system
(which I recommend for everyone to use, and dearly wish we had a buildbot
for), ocaml built straight through without touching anything:
{{{
$ port -v installed ocaml
The following ports are currently installed:
ocaml @4.02.2_1 (active) platform='darwin 10' archs='x86_64'
date='2017-11-22T09:22:43-0800'
}}}
I will explore exactly what works, but in my mind, you should either let
the default compiler do it, or jump directly to a new clang (like 4 or 5).
I personally think it's kind of tedious to spend too much time finding the
oldest compiler that works (a moving target for the next version of the
port anyway, usually).
