--------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
 The configure script for policykit finds the tools in {{{/opt/local/bin}}}
 (or whatever your default installation directory is) and uses those in the
 build process.  It seems that {{{a}}} and {{{basenam}}}= cause problems in
 this case.  See attached log.

 Either adding (a) a note to the port file, or even better (b) a check for
 whether {{{coreutils+with_default_names}}} is installed and react
 accordingly, e.g., issuing an error message or setting the path explicitly
 for the configure script, etc.

 Deactivating coreutils and then installing policyKit (after a port clean)
 solves the problem.
