Comment(by blb@…):

 Since dluke@ reports 10.7's build works fine (which uses clang) and
 apparently Xcode 4.0 & 4.1 cause MacPorts to default to llvm-gcc-4.2,
 perhaps avoiding llvm is the answer.  If you try setting
 {{{
 configure.compiler gcc-4.2
 }}}
 in python27's Portfile, then install again, see if that one works.  If
 that's the answer we'd probably want to copy how
 [browser:trunk/dports/devel/gmp/Portfile gmp does this] since that'll
 limit it to just where llvm is used.
