Comment:

 The error comes from the configure phase, which usually runs as an
 unprivileged user.
 {{{
 :notice:configure --->  Configuring gmp
 :debug:configure Using compiler 'Xcode Clang'
 :debug:configure Executing proc-pre-org.macports.configure-configure-0
 :error:configure org.macports.configure for port gmp returned: couldn't
 create error file for command: permission denied
 }}}
 I’ve never seen this failure before, and I don’t know what this “error
