Comment(by vinc17@…):

 Replying to [comment:6 guy.linton@…]:
 > As far as I can understand, MacPorts does not run automake by default,
 hence I have not run it at all.

 This is not specific to MacPorts. The autotools (automake, autoconf,
 libtool...) are utilities for developers. They should only be needed when
 some files of a tarball are patched (e.g. Makefile.am, configure.in) or
 when the source files are taken from a version control system (Subversion,
 git...). Depending on how the Makefile has been generated, there can be
 some rules to automatically (re)run the autotools when this is needed
 (a.k.a. maintainer mode).

 > I don't understand why changing the order would avoid the duplicate: if
 the symbol is defined twice surely it is defined twice whatever the order?

 I agree.
