Comment (by cboynton@…):

 For what it's worth, I tried compiling with Erlang R16B and it didn't
 work. It seems like the language has changed some since R15B01 and
 deprecated some features which were used in the code. For example, this
 message was provided as an error during compilation of one of the included
 projects (mochiweb): "parameterized modules are no longer supported".

 One side note... we should be able to use R15B02. The issue with "error
 with riak-admin status commands" was resolved here:
 https://github.com/basho/riak_kv/pull/415

 Does the MacPorts community consider it a cardinal sin to compile from
 source using a previous version of a compiler? I ask because the project
 will need some work before it is compatible with the latest release of
 Erlang. For example, they will have to reference a more up-to-date version
 of mochiweb with the parameterized modules fix:
 https://github.com/basho/mochiweb/pull/6
