New description:

 I am unable to build boost on my old Mac running Lion.  Macports is
 configured to use libc++.


 {{{
 --->  Computing dependencies for boost
 --->  Configuring boost
 --->  Building boost
 Error: Failed to build boost: command execution failed
 Error: See
 /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_boost/boost/main.log

 }}}

 I have also tried to upgrade boost using the following commands without
 success:


 {{{
 sudo port clean boost
 sudo port upgrade boost configure.compiler=clang
 }}}


 I finally ran the following upgrade command with the verbose option:
 sudo port -v upgrade boost configure.compiler=clang

 Attached please find the output of the command.
 I also have attached the main.log file.

 P.S.  As recommended, I have removed the default.compilers line from
 macports.conf for Macports 2.6.x
