 Remark - I posted the following at GNOME Bugzilla
 (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677755) -- they suggested I
 try to find the person maintaining the port.  Here's what I wrote,
 slightly edited.

 I am running Mac OS X 10.7.4.  I just upgraded all of my packages through
 mac ports.  Here is my version of gnumeric:
 {{{
 [~]$ port installed gnumeric
 The following ports are currently installed:
   gnumeric @1.10.17_0+python27 (active)
 }}}
 Here is the crash I am seeing: I type
 {{{
 [~]$ gnumeric
 }}}
 and the program comes up in X11 (XQuartz 2.6.4 (xorg-server 1.10.6)).  I
 type a few characters in any cell of the spreadsheet and hit return.  The
 spreadsheet then freezes for a few moments, and then disappears.  Here is
 the output on the terminal:
 {{{
 dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _pcre_info
   Referenced from: /opt/local/lib/libgoffice-0.8.8.dylib
   Expected in: flat namespace

 dyld: Symbol not found: _pcre_info
   Referenced from: /opt/local/lib/libgoffice-0.8.8.dylib
   Expected in: flat namespace

 Trace/BPT trap
 }}}
 I've tried installing older version of gnumeric.  Either the problem
 persists or new problems show up.  I've tried rolling back my copy of
 goffice - that doesn't seem to help either.  I'm currently completely up
 to date and still seeing a consistent crash.

Comment:

 The gnumeric port has no maintainer in MacPorts at this time.

 _pcre_info... sounds like an incompatibility with the new pcre 8.30.
