Comment (by kencu):

 Thanks for the background. Something must have changed with `5.18.12` on
 High Sierra, because it builds now. But anyway, that fix for `5.18.14` is
 just what we needed, and now that works great. Seems I have seen that fix
 before, but just didn't recall it yesterday...

 for `5.18.16` the guile patch doesn't apply, so I disabled it for now.

 re: the `mktemp` issue, I see we already have `gmktemp` in `coreutils`,
 and this port already depends on `coreutils`, so the trick is to force it
 to use `gmktemp` instead of `mktemp`. Unfortunately it looks like there is
 no way to do that in a simple configure force, as `mktemp` is not tested
 the way other applications like `SED` are tested, and you can't just
 override it. So I just batch replaced them all in the port.

 Sadly, even after that, `5.18.16` fails to build:
 {{{
 make[2]: Entering directory
 `/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_autogen/autogen/work/autogen-5.18.16/columns'
 top_builddir=.. \
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_autogen/autogen/work/autogen-5.18.16/agen5/autogen

 -DLEVEL=section --timeout=`expr 16 '*' 3` ./opts.def
 Could not decipher Guile version: n
 }}}
 so autogen 5.18.16 vs guile will need some more sorting out.

 I'll attach the patch I used to replace mktemp with gmktemp pending some
 upstream addressing of the issue, if they do.
