Comment (by tom-seddon):

 For whatever it's worth, I just got this running through Travis CI.

 The Travis CI Macs come with HomeBrew preinstalled, so I imagine most
 people use that. My project uses avr-gcc, which HomeBrew builds from
 scratch, so I install MacPorts to get a pre-built copy quickly.

 https://github.com/tom-
 seddon/beeblink/blob/8ac7e728f7e1d5761fa5bc8b4dd762109cd1315b/.travis.yml
 should give you an idea of what command lines were involved.

 https://travis-ci.org/tom-seddon/beeblink/builds/422163670 is the build
 output from the problem build.
