New description:

 Failure to install.

 I've tried
 {{{
 sudo port install py26-pynifti configure.compiler=llvm-gcc-4.2
 sudo port install py26-pynifti configure.compiler=apple-gcc-4.2
 configure.cxx=g++-apple-4.2
 }}}
 and the patch from Ticket #32268 has been applied.

Comment:

 Sounds like the project contains a typo: "--no-undefined" should be "-no-
 undefined" (one leading hyphen, not two). Sounds like that's what #32268
 was supposed to have fixed. Maybe there's more than one occurrence of the
 problem.

 Python modules (e.g. py26-pynifti) ignore configure.compiler and instead
 use the compiler that was used to compile the corresponding python port
 (e.g. python26) so manually overriding configure.compiler when building a
 python module has no effect.

 Manually adding configure.cxx when setting the compiler to apple-gcc-4.2
 has not been necessary since the release of MacPorts 2.0.4; if we still
 have documentation somewhere saying this is necessary, please let us know
 where so that we can correct it.
