Comment (by roncli):

 I can install a bunch of things from source.  The only other issue I have
 had is with fondu, and I have not started debugging that one yet.  Right
 now, though, everything is nuked and no ports are installed so I can focus
 on just this one issue for now.  The nuke from orbit routine was actually
 one of the first things I did before bringing the issue here. :)
 Unfortunately, it didn't help.

 Since I've been home, I've started doing some deeper debugging of the
 issue.  It happens when configure calls config.guess.  It runs
 config.guess, and even echos the appropriate system type, "ivybridge-
 apple-darwin17.3.0".

 The specific part in configure that is failing:

 {{{
 test "x$ac_build_alias" = x &&
   ac_build_alias=`$SHELL "$ac_aux_dir/config.guess"`
 }}}

 It is going as far as running {{{ /bin/sh "./config.guess" }}}
 successfully, but something about this statement is not allowing the
 script to go further.  I'm at a loss as to why this might be.
