Comment (by mcalhoun@…):

 Please forgive my ignorance, but can anyone explain why r127982 fixes the
 problem (although I am glad it does)?[[BR]]
 botan has the following code on line 46:
 {{{
 array set merger_configure_args {
     ppc     --cpu=ppc
     i386    --cpu=ia32
     ppc64   --cpu=ppc64
     x86_64  --cpu=amd64
 }
 }}}

 So how, on line 65, could `merger_configure_args($build_arch)` be
 undefined?

 Further, why does this problem only show up on certain
 configurations?[[BR]]
 On the [https://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-
 dev/2014-November/028702.html mailing list], it mentions "a bad
 assumption," but I am  not sure what that means.

 Thanks to anyone who can explain this.
