 > I tried the above.  I wasn't able to run `sudo port upgrade cctools` (it
 said libgcc7 was broken, no other info), but uninstalling and reinstalling
 libgcc7 and then reinstalling cctools worked.  Trying to install `mpich-
 default` leads to (seemingly) the same error:

 > In the referenced ticket () they say to make sure the `xcode` cctools
 variant is installed.  I did a `port variants cctools` and get:

 the xcode version?

 Update: using the xcode version fixes the problem.
