Comment (by kencu):

 I just tweaked my TigerPorts repo for clang-3.8, to make it use cmake-
 bootstrap. So it should work for you. I just used it to build clang-3.8 on
 my 10.4 Intel VM and it went without a hitch... so please give it a try.

 If you have the TigerPorts repo in your sources, {{{sudo port -v install
 clang-3.8}}} should install it for you.

 MacPorts will not automatically use it, so you have to force it when you
 want it, as above.

 I'll consider how we might make archives available. It can't be directly
 in the macports ecosystem, if we do it, but there are ways.

 I'm impressed with your enthusiasm, and I hope you leverage all this
 knowledge you're gathering to contribute to MacPorts further in the
 future. MacPorts is -- I believe -- by far the most powerful and versatile
 package manager system for macOS available, but in exchange for that
 power, the learning curve is steeper than alternative systems.
