Comment (by ecronin@…):
I remember a bit more now... It's supposed to build with clang 3.1 and
later. The stopper I ran into the one time I tried several months ago was
that the libc++ that the Lion XCode/Lion itself (not sure which "owns"
/usr/lib/libc++) provided was not new enough to implement the needed C++11
stdlib features, so it would need some macports-provided newer version of
libc++. (I was confusing it with another program that needed an
unreleased clang snapshot which is why I said clang-devel in the other
ticket).
I don't know which boost libs mkvtoolnix is using these days, and how much
there are differences in those libs when -std=c++11 is involved. But it
would at least be ABI compatible I think, which mp-gcc won't be any time
soon. You might get lucky and it will work well enough for mkvtoolnix,
which is much better than today's mp-gcc which definitely will never
work... It's still not a general solution to the boost versioning problem
