Comment (by kencu):

 well -- progress!

 But once again, your easiest way to success is likey going to be to sort
 out how to put the proper args into the MacPorts hamlib Portfile rather
 than try to redo all the configuration yourself. I suggest you don't
 export a PYTHONPATH, don't install into /usr/local, and don't try to
 duplicate a huge amount of MacPorts setup.

 For example -- Josh Root has put about -- I won't guess how many hours --
 into setting up all the python setup scripts so they properly find the
 right parts during a build. This is very complicated!

 Even just the compilers need setup, and that is trivial to do -- look at
 what you found on your own:
 {{{
  Preprocessor   gcc -E
  C Compiler     gcc -g -O2
  C++ Compiler   g++ -g -O2
 }}}

 There is no way that trying to build much of anything with gcc and g++ is
 going to work on MacOS, especially not on 10.7 where we almost certainly
 need some newer compiler.

 So let's figure out the options you need for python3 and try to get that
 working.

 Now you might need to compromise a bit; it is not trivial to run multiple
 different make sessions in one MacPorts build. It's just not set up that
 way. So can you live with just one of the python bindings? or have a
 variant for either python2 or python3?
