New description:

 This new port is failing to build on Big Sur ARM, as the configure script
 is failing to detect the two-arg version of gettimeofday(). Interestingly
 enough, though, this is ONLY occurring for Big Sur ARM; Intel is working
 just fine, though.

 Example configure output, from the builder:

 {{{
 [...]
 checking if gettimeofday takes tz argument... no
 [...]
 }}}

 With the result being a later compilation error, due to attempted use of
 gettimeofday() with a single argument.

 https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-
 11_arm64-builder/builds/31657/steps/install-port/logs/stdio

 Still reviewing `configure.ac` from later upstream releases, to see what
 I'm missing.
