Comment:

 I have changed the priority of this ticket to high.

 It's increasingly annoying that no single port can now use both Fortran
 and the CMake PortGroup simultaneously. I would really like to switch to
 CMake for ROOT for example, but this is one of the major showstoppers for
 that.

 Related tickets:
   * #37034 (`plplot` cannot use the `PortGroup` at all)
   * [https://trac.macports.org/ticket/37688#comment:41 #37688#comment:41]
 (ROOT cannot compile an Fortran code at all unless the `cmake` `PortGroup`
 gets removed)
   * there are other ports like Geant4 suffering from this
 Yes, it's a bug in CMake, but unless someone knows how to fix that bug, we
 need a workaround in MacPorts.

 There is a related enhancement request for the PortGroup from me: #33259.
