Comment (by ryandesign@…):

 The log you attached is not from a
 [https://guide.macports.org/chunked/project.html#project.tickets clean
 build]. But even so, we can see that the error is "SyntaxError: invalid
 syntax" while trying to run some Python code. Tiger's Python is too old to
 handle this code. The llvm ports need to use a newer version of python
 from MacPorts (2.7, probably).

 #42051 is related. (We might even consider this ticket a duplicate of that
 one.) Here, Jeremy removed the python version check, because it was
 thought that the llvm build system didn't really care what version of
 python was being used. As we can see, this is incorrect.
