One possible change that could help this issue of the sdk setting would be to use the xcrun to actually invoke the compiler, passing the -sdk option to it (this option takes the sdk name, rather than the full path, letting it use its knowledge of the Xcode and sdk locations to form the ultimate path). But this option wouldn't help at all for invoking non-xcode compiler versions.

One thing that would I think work would be to build, and include with MacPorts, a simple xcode project that contained a script phase that would print out needed paths. This project could be invoked with xcodebuild, passing it the needed -sdk name, and the output from the script phase parsed to garner any needed paths for isysroot, and even for Xcode itself if needed.

Generally speaking I'd say that 4) seems wrong to me, I haven't
checked how compiler is actually invoked (exec, open, mp's tcl
extension?) but I'd say that 3) would be a better option.

I see that xcrun has a "-find" option that prints the full path to the
tool passed as argument, has this option gone in 4.3?
