However, my port requires that CC, CXX, CPP, and FC/F77 are all from a gcc variant. For example, it's not possible to compile it using CC=clang and FC=gfortran-mp-4.8.

Thanks for your answer.

I found the problem: the link was done against libstdc++ instead if libc++. I’ve fixed this and I’ve just posted a revised version of the port on the tracker.
