New description:

 The build fails in a fashion similar to that of #32095:

 {{{

 }}}

 but the actual error happens much earlier:

 {{{
 bin/sh ./libtool --quiet --mode=compile /usr/bin/g++-4.0 -O2 -arch ppc
 -Wall -MD -MF libqpdf/build/PCRE.tdep -MP -Iinclude -Ilibqpdf

 libqpdf/PCRE.cc: In constructor ‘PCRE::PCRE(const char*, int)’:
 libqpdf/PCRE.cc:147: error: ‘pcre_info’ was not declared in this scope
 }}}

 which does not produce

 {{{
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_lil.fr.rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_textproc_qpdf/qpdf/work/qpdf-2.3.0/libqpdf/build/PCRE.lo
 }}}

 because obviously I now have installed:

 {{{
   pcre @8.30_0 (active)
 }}}

Comment:

 This problem and its fix were
 [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3489349&group_id=224196&atid=1060899
 already reported] to the developer qpdf who has said he will include the
 fix in the next version of qpdf.

 Here is a patch to update qpdf to 2.3.1 and include this patch. It builds
 for me. @dojo: May I commit it?
