Comment (by snowflake):

 Replying to [comment:3 kencu]:
 > well perhaps they are...If I wanted to reproduce your issue myself
 exactly as you see it, can you tell me the specific steps you would do
 from no macports installed at all to seeing the error you see?

 I already have Macports installed.

 1. Edit standard_configure.sh to change the line to the one I posted
 above.

 2. ```make clean``` and run standard_configure.sh

 3.  Run make and observe the error I posted above.

 4. Remove ```--enable-readline``` from standard_configure.sh

 5. Repeat step 2.

 6. make

 7. Get a successful build and install it.

 8. Observe that ```mpstats submit``` works on Mountain Lion, which is what
 I was trying to achieve in the first place, as it does not work with the
 system curl.

 I realise that there is a chicken-and-egg problem in a fresh install. I
 can live without the readline facility in port as I do not use it very
 much.

 Trying to upgrade curl may also have problems.
