 Replying to [comment:1 ryandesign]:

 That NM fix in #60253 corrects an error building on < 10.6 with a
 macports-clang-N compiler, as the objects produced by a newer macports-
 clang-N compiler are in a format that is too new for the old
 {{{/usr/bin/nm}}} on < 10.6 to process.

 So it really only fixes building on Leopard Intel, where a macports-
 clang-N compiler is used to build pango. Aside: Riccardo is a heavy user
 of Leopard Intel, as he has a laptop he really like to use that runs gimp,
 that he uses for his photography interests (look him up on the internet
 sometime, very interesting).

 When I added a block like that to a Portfile, I usually tried to add in a
 restriction to use that newer NM only when building with a macports-
 clang-N compiler for this reason.
