Comment:

 Reopened: the build now succeeds, but `libslatec.a` contains only the
 string `!<arch>` and a newline, whether built from source or installed
 prebuilt.  This makes it a tad difficult to link against, eg (from `port
 install gildas`):

 {{{
 :info:build ld: file too small (length=8) file
 '/opt/local/lib/libslatec.a' for architecture x86_64
 :info:build collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
 }}}

 This is happening for our 10.12 and 10.13 nightly builds (we've yet to
 stand up a 10.14 builder).  Our builds don't do `port select gcc mp-gcc8`,
 but doing so before a test source build of `slatec` doesn't fix the
 problem.

 Please find enclosed the log for `port -v -s install slatec`, of which
 this seems to be the top bit:

 Please let me know if there's anything else you wish me to try.
