Comment (by RJVB):

 Should I understand that `--without-cxx11-option` should be added for
 Darwin < 13, i.e.

 {{{
 if {${os.major} < 13} {
     configure.args-append \
         --without-cxx11-option=no
 }
 }}}

 Strange though, the configure help text suggests this option is for future
 versions.


 As to the other option: one can wonder why it wasn't renamed to its new
 name by the helpful soul who upgraded the port O:-)

 A propos NVMe:

 {{{
 configure: WARNING:
 This version of smartmontools provides NVMe support which is still
 EXPERIMENTAL.  NVMe devices are not yet included in smartd.conf
 'DEVICESCAN' and 'smartctl --scan' unless '-d nvme' is specified.
 }}}

 I think it's clear that we don't need this - yet. Will such devices even
 ever be supported on Mac?
