Comment:

 In the ensuing discussion, it seems that the following resolves the
 problem.

 {{{
 ok, after what @neverpanic said and some googling I figured out that I had
 to do port select --set gcc none to reset clang++ as the default compiler.
 the linking errors disappeared after that.
 }}}

 In summary, this was a problem with how the bitcoin developers were using
 MacPorts.

 We can probably do better in our bitcoin portfile to detect the
 problematic situation, but I am closing as 'wontfix' for now.  Please re-
 open with additional information if we need additional action on the
 MacPorts side.
