Comment:

 I still have "All compilers are either blacklisted or unavailable; using
 first fallback entry as last resort", followed by configure failing with
 "configure: error: Compiler GCC >= 4.7 or Clang >= 3.0 is required for C
 compilation" because the first fallback compiler in MacPorts 2.1.3 is one
 of the compilers the port blacklists. I still don't understand how ports
 are meant to deal with this. I don't understand why MacPorts would try the
 "first fallback entry" if it's a blacklisted compiler. Why wouldn't it try
 the first fallback entry ''that's not blacklisted''? Then ports could
 simply append a suitable compiler to compiler.fallback.
