Comment(by bjorn@…):

 According to [http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.macports.user/16155
 this post] from Rainer Müller to the Mac Ports user list, this can be
 addressed by changing line 100 in the `strings.c` file referenced in the
 error message.

 Rainer suggests replacing the line with `#if 0`. I replaced the 0 with an
 undefined variable, from:

 {{{
 #ifdef 0
 }}}

 to

 {{{
 #ifdef SOMETHING_NOT_DEFINED
 }}}

 and then re-execute `sudo port install i386-elf-binutils`. Don't know why
 I did that instead of trying `#if 0`, but this worked for me.
