Comment (by kencu):

 The version of {{{botan}}} bundled in does not anticipate any arch other
 than an Intel system, it appears. There is lots of hard-coded assembly in
 there, and no real guards to consider a PPC machine that I can see.

 There is an option to use a system {{{botan}}} but it expects version
 1.10, and our current MacPorts version is in the 2.x range, so no idea if
 that might work. Doubt it though.

 And I'll guess that even if you fixed up the botan assembly issue, you'll
 likely find other areas where an Intel processor was assumed, if it was
 assumed there.

 I don't see any indication I ever installed {{{qt4-qtcreator-mac}}} on
 PPC... do you actually have it installed on PPC now? If so, I wonder how
 it ever installed ...
