 Hi @jmroot, folks.

 I did a clean slate install today (new account).

 I see the same problem again:

 I've attached 3 files that contain logs from the build of MacPorts from
 GIT source.

 Here's my environment:

 Note that I have not touched macports-base and the only config change I've
 made is to /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf to get macports to use my
 macports-ports copy.

 Any ideas ? I'm at a loss!

 Thanks!
