 Hi,  doing a clean install of my ports after upgrading to Sierra, I ran
 into the following (minor) problem with gcc48:
 {{{
 Iains-MacBook-Pro:src ibethune$ sudo port install gcc48 +universal
 --->  Computing dependencies for gcc48
 --->  Building gcc48
 Error: org.macports.build for port gcc48 returned: command execution
 failed
 Please see the log file for port gcc48 for details:
 /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_lang_gcc48/gcc48/main.log
 To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
     http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
 Error: Processing of port gcc48 failed
 }}}
 The specific cause of the bug is the file -
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_lang_gcc48/gcc48/work/gcc-4.8.5/gcc/doc/gcc.texi

 The build process cannot deal with the @tex ... @end tex on lines 88 and
 90.  I applied manually the fix described here: https://gcc.gnu.org/ml
 /gcc-patches/2013-09/msg02100.html i.e. replacing the @tex .. @end tex
 with @email{...} and the build proceeded normally.
