Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 Instead of individually setting `configure.fc`, `configure.cc`,
 `configure.cxx`, `configure.cpp`, why net just set `configure.compiler`?
 That's its purpose -- to set all these at once. Instructions for adding
 gcc variants are at wiki:PortfileRecipes#gcc .

 The default for configure.pre_args is ''not'' blank; it's
 "`--prefix=${prefix}`". If the configure script is not a standard autoconf
 script, and has a problem with the `--prefix` argument, you may very well
 need to clear configure.pre_args or set it to some other value.

 Placing the test directives in the main part of the Portfile, instead of
 in a test variant, is indeed recommend, but that does not cause the tests
 to run; to run the tests, you still have to ask for them with "`sudo port
 test`".
