 I'm not sure what's going on here. In all cases, quitting 'port' and
 restarting it and reissuing the 'install' command succeeds. But one time
 in five or so, building a Python-based port fails, apparently because it's
 set $CC to an empty string or something like that:

 It's not the same port(s) each time, seems to be random.

 Leopard 10.5.1/9B18, MacPorts 1.600, freshly installed and updated.
