------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 This is the second time in the past week or so that I've had a port fail
 to run because it wanted an earlier version of some .dylib than the one
 installed.  Isn't there some easy way to require and then use any version
 equal to or LATER than some specific version?

 Here is my detailed report:

 {{{
