#52583: python27+universal configure fails on getaddrinfo (el capitan)

 Priority:  Normal      |  Milestone:
Component:  ports       |    Version:  2.3.4
 Keywords:              |       Port:  python27
------------------------+--------------------------------
 I'm trying to migrate macports from a 10.6.8 host to a 10.11.5 host
 after migration assistant copied it across (and that all worked).
 It's the macports migration that's a problem.
 I'm stuck trying to get python27 +universal to configure.
 And I need desperately for it to work.

 It fails to find getaddrinfo(). I have Xcode 8.0.

 Note that when installing things, I keep getting told:
 {{{
   Warning: The Xcode Command Line Tools don't appear to be installed; most
 ports will likely fail to build.
   Warning: Install them by running `xcode-select --install'.
 }}}

 Which is not true and most things configure and compile successfully.

 If I try xcode-select --install just to get rid of the warning,
 it eventually tells me that it "Can't download the software
 because of a network problem" but I read somewhere that errors
 like that might just mean that the latest version is already
 installed. And the command line tools are there so I'm not too
 worried about that but it might it might be a clue to something.
