 Replying to [comment:15 ryandesign@…]:
 > I fixed the immediate problem in r140527, but I'm not comfortable with
 the way this port works. It is not MacPorts custom for a port to build
 itself differently depending on how another port was built, but that's
 what py-netcdf4 does: it chooses which compiler to use based on the
 compiler that was used for netcdf. With netcdf it's possible to discover
 what compiler was used by checking which variants are selected in "port
 installed netcdf", but py-netcdf4 doesn't have compiler variants so that's
 not possible. That would also mean that if a user gets a binary from our
 packages server it might have been built with a different compiler than
 the netcdf on the user's system. If it's really so important that py-
 netcdf4 uses the same compiler as netcdf, then py-netcdf4 needs to get the
 same variants that netcdf has, and the require_active_variants procedure
 in the active_variants 1.1 portgroup needs to be used to ensure the
 variants the user has selected for the two ports match.

 Almost certainly, this (and any other port that depends on hdf5) needs to
 use the mpi portgroup so that the compilers line up. I truly hate compiler
 wrappers. I can try to look at revamping the py-netcdf portfile but don't
 know when I'll have time.
