Comment (by michaelld@…):

 The key debug info is:
 {{{
 :info:build ld: warning: ignoring file /usr/local/lib/libfftw3.a, file was
 built for archive which is not the architecture being linked (x86_64):
 /usr/local/lib/libfftw3.a
 :info:build ld: warning: ignoring file /usr/local/lib/libgfortran.dylib,
 file was built for i386 which is not the architecture being linked
 (x86_64): /usr/local/lib/libgfortran.dylib
 }}}

 Looks like you have cruft (32-bit i386 stuff) installed info /usr/local.
 Homebrew generally installs into /usr/local, so maybe you have old HB
 cruft around?

 MacPorts tries to restrict search locations for dependencies as best
 possible, but we can't get everything all the time. Hence, we highly
 recommend picking a specific package installed (MacPorts, Fink, Homebrew)
 and sticking with it alone.

 If you have no idea what the stuff there is, then I'd advise removing
 anything unnecessary in /usr/local.
