 gcc installation.  THere is a directory in /opt/local/include called tr1
 and the file is in this directory as well as in /opt/local/include.  Not

 with my gcc45 installation.


 Hello again.  I compared my installation of macports on this machine to
 one on another mac (intel, 10.6) and saw that /opt/local/include did not
 have the following: a bits directory, a tr1 directory (both full of C++
 related files), a cstdarg file, or a stdarg.h file.  I'm not sure where
 these came from but I removed them and am now rebuilding my ports.  Seems
 to be going fine so far.  I'm guessing these files and directories were
 installed by one of the gcc compiler installations I may have tried (I now
 use gcc45) as all are related to gnu C++.   Just wanted to document it in
 case another person runs into this.  I'm good for now.
