Comment:

 Could you attach your config.log as well? Your main.log says:

 {{{
 :info:configure checking for sbrk... yes
 }}}
 and:
 {{{
 :info:configure checking that sbrk is (now) non-random... cannot trap sbrk
 }}}

 On my Intel Mac, it says:

 {{{
 :info:configure checking for sbrk... yes
 :info:configure emulating sbrk for mac
 }}}

 The code in
 [http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gcl.git/commit/gcl/configure.in?h=Version_2_6_12&id=0cbc999eadb551a0e9fb36cade520cbec24188bd
 configure.in disables the use of sbrk on Intel macOS]. The version of gcl
 we have in MacPorts predates the existence of Apple Silicon Macs. Maybe
 the use of `sbrk` should be disabled on Apple Silicon Macs too.

 I did not see any changes to this in configure.in in the latest version of
 the software but I will still try updating the port to the latest version.
