Comment (by kencu):

 It seems like all the hassles people seem to have with this port appear to
 be from errors building the japanese documentation, which almost nobody
 actually wants. So there's that :> Seems like a plan to just turn that
 off.

 but for the moment, something seems to be interfering with the build of
 the documentation. Sometimes, running a build in trace mode will help, as
 it disables any ports that aren't specifically asked for in the Portfile.
 {{{
 sudo port clean auto-multiple-choice
 sudo port -v -t install auto-multiple-choice
 }}}

 and if that works, some other as-yet-unspecified port is interfering with
 it.

 If that still didn't work, and I really wanted it, I would consider
 deactivating the port tree {{{sudo port -f deactivate active}}}, and then
 installing auto-multiple-choice again:
 {{{
 sudo port clean auto-multiple-choice
 sudo port -v install auto-multiple-choice
 }}}
 and you may ask why do you always have to clean every time before you try
 to install something, and the answer there is that you don't but sometimes
 you do, so just do it every time and you'll always be OK with that.
