Comment:

 Here's a patch that worked for me.

 The patch does many things:

 * Update to 3.4.9.
 * Switch from cmake-1.0 to cmake-1.1 portgroup because all ports should do
 so.
 * Add GitHub handle to maintainers line because all maintained ports
 should have that.
 * Download from a tarball instead of the Mercurial repository because all
 ports that can should do that.
 * Remove old patch which switched the Python install prefix. This is now
 controlled with a new cmake flag, so add
 `-DINSTALL_PYTHON_USING_PREFIX=ON`.
 * cmake-1.1 defaults to building out of source, but this build system
 doesn't like that when building the Python module, so explicitly turn off
 out of source building.
 * Convert `reinplace` that linked with multithreaded boost libraries if
 present into a patch that's always applied. We don't want ports to behave
 differently depending on what ports (or what variants of ports) are
 installed. And I don't think there's any variant of boost that causes it
 to build without the multithreaded libraries so it's fine to always use
 them.
 * Remove `reinplace` that changed the documentation installation
 directory. The `reinplace` no longer changed anything in the
 CMakeLists.txt file, and I could not find any similar code there. It seems
 that no documentation is installed. I didn't look if it was still there
 somewhere.
 * Alphabetize `configure.args`.
 * Fix all the paths in `configure.args`.
 * Remove `-DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON` arg because the cmake portgroups
 already add that.
 * Fix variant descriptions: Use imperative style, with capitalized first
 letter, and use actual Python version numbers.
 * Remove unnecessary commented out code.
