Comment (by chrstphrchvz):

 I do not believe this issue is due to too-old libtool, because the port
 now only supports macOS 10.13 and later, implying that Xcode 9 or later is
 used, implying that cctools 900 or later are used. `Error running link
 command:  Invalid argument` still happens even on macOS 12 with Xcode 13.2
 CLT, where /usr/bin/libtool is from cctools 986 (just as new as MacPorts’
 cctools).

 To avoid confusion, I proposed cleaning up the “allow newer libtool”
 patching: [https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/13541], but
 that made no difference to this problem. I only notice that it prevents
 trace mode from saying:

 {{{
 Warning: The following existing files were hidden from the build system by
 trace mode:
 …
   /opt/local/bin/libtool
 }}}

 because [122fca8e4617/macports-ports] was done without specifying cctools
 as a build dependency, meaning that using trace mode defeats the purpose
 of that change. Similar patching is still done in e.g. mysql56 and
 mariadb; should those instead add cctools build dependency and patch to
 use `${prefix}/bin/libtool` on older systems?
