Comment (by sharris40):
Doing that worries me a little. Upstream didn't seem to point out the
reason for C++14 source in the documentation, unless I missed something. I
had to search around to figure out why they were requiring it. If they
aren't communicating those changes very well, the port may need to start
playing keep-up. It might be better to pin Poppler's version for older
platforms if further breakage happens.
It's also worth pointing out that 0.73.0 renamed one of the options the
portfile sets to the much more blatant "ENABLE_UNSTABLE_API_ABI_HEADERS",
which sounds to me like they're planning on more major breakages (such as
the one that broke texlive-bin until they switched back to the bundled
version).
