Comment:

 First observation: you shouldn't be using Xcode 5.1 on 10.9. Update to
 6.2, which is essentially the only combination we can be asked to
 reasonably support (notwithstanding the fact that 10.9 is long obsolete
 anyway).

 Secondly: incidentally, this bug was fixed (or worked around) by the fix
 committed as part of #57877, but now resurfaces after
 [changeset:"dcc120953e39660f62aed7c33c324bfa1d4c0206/macports-ports"
 dcc120953e39660f62aed7c33c324bfa1d4c0206/macports-ports].

 I believe that removing the blacklist completely was not intentional and
 merely a mistake while doing the mass update?

 I'd like to re-instantiate the blacklist for at least something like
 `clang < 600`. We probably don't need to go as broad as `< 800` again
 because the port built on 10.10+ and only failed on 10.9-.
