Comment(by mfeiri@…):

 Unfortunately llvm doesnt support tiger anymore. I'd guess odcctools
 depends on llvm to support llvm bitcode in odld. This is the reason why
 the ld64 port depends on llvm.

 I dont understand why g95 depends on odcctools on tiger. It doesnt require
 odcctools on newer systems. In any case, I'm afraid that support for tiger
 in llvm is simply not something we can provide. It might be possible to
 make llvm an optional dependency in odcctools. But odcctools is
 unmaintained and at this point in time it would be generally hard to
 justify special effort just for tiger. Sorry.
