 > For your specific problem in this ticket, you would be most likely to
 solve it, I believe, if you could find a simple “hello.c” reproducer that
 triggers the linker’s abort 6 crash. Doing it outside of a port build on
 MacPorts would be best, as the fewer variables involved, the better.

 overly messy, someone would look at it, for certain.

 Yes, I have stopped for now reporting identical failures with `ld` abort 6
 message until the error is investigated on my end. It seems to be specific
 to 10.6.8, I do not recall this happenning on 10.6 PPC (and certainly not
 in such numbers) or 10.5.8.
