Comment:

 I'll just call maintainer timeout on this one, particularly since the fix
 is a trivial backport of the patch we already have for `gcc48`.

 Interestingly, some ports fail to build in trace mode while others don't.
 This is likely a consequence of opportunistic usage of `texinfo` (since
 the system version of `texinfo` on 10.9 is older than what we ship in
 MacPorts.)

 It would probably be good to add a proper dependency on `texinfo` for all
 `*gcc*` ports, but meh, I don't care this much.
