Comment (by huppmann):

 this seems to result from the libalkimia objects being built without
 external linkage; i.e., the symbols aren't "exported". i hacked the
 Portfile as attached and it builds thus, but it does so by lying to
 kdemacros.h and telling it that clang is gcc. obviously something more
 systematic may be required so that other libraries don't have the same
 issue, but i'm not sure how interested the KDE developers would be in this
 task, since they've moved on to KDE 5 and the macports stuff is KDE 4

 there is some related discussion at https://lists.macports.org/pipermail
