Comment:

 In MacPorts we generally do not specify dependencies on compilers, unless
 it is an unusual one. Users are expected to have Xcode installed, which
 provides the needed compilers.

 As of Xcode 4.2, MacPorts uses Xcode's clang by default. Xcode includes a
 pre-release version of clang 3.0. The final version of clang 3.0 was just
 released December 1, 2011. This hypothetical clang 3.4 the error message
 refers to probably won't be conceived for several more years.

 The problem is they're assuming the compiler is gcc, and are trying to
 verify you're using at least gcc 3.4 (a very old version).

 This is [http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2011 upstream
 bug 2011], which claims the issue is resolved in a newer upstream version
 of lilypond.
