 > So the $100,000 question is... what do we do for this port? While
 there's no rush to update Mame to 0.227, it would be nice not to leave
 this hanging for too long, either...

 I suggest: update your port as you wish. If older systems lose the
 capability to build it, that is life. Mark them as not building. Provide a
 fallback version 0.226 for them if you're generous.

 If there is interest and motivation to come up with a plan to fix that,
 that will happen organically.

 For this problem, we will most likely come up with a fix for the older
 libc++ on older systems, as soon that will affect many ports. It will be a
 group decision, lots of back and forth. And don't forget MacPorts quibbles
 about the location of a decimal point, so in the end there will probably
 be someone like Josh or Marcus who just swoops in an dumps it into
 MacPorts as a "fait accompli" rather than a whole ton of back and forth
 discussion about it, to be honest.
