Comment (by kencu):

 although it's useful having you find all these new build issues on the
 latest system installation, and all these will in course of time get fixed
 ---

 your life will be 1000x easier if you just used the default prefix of
 /opt/local and installed all the prebuilt binaries.

 I presume there is some good reason you aren't doing that.

 Homebrew, for example, provides no support for users building from source.
 These new build issues only really get found when something is updated --
 at that point in time, it is confirmed to build (and fixed to build) as
 widely as possible by the person doing the updating, and binaries are
 built and stored on the binaries server.

 Until the next time the port is updated by a MacPorts contributor,
 building it on your own is a crapshoot. It may, it may not, depending on
 many different things (system updates, dependency updates, etc).

 So -- you are going to see LOTS of problems building everything yourself
 in your custom prefix, just so you know.

 Sure, they all will get fixed in time. It's just a question of whether you
 have the stomach for the heartburn you will be going through.
