 Thank you. I was able eventually to build llvm-3.7 as ppc64 and rebuild
 ld64-97 as +llvm37.

 {{{
 36-42:~ svacchanda$ port -v installed llvm-3.7
 The following ports are currently installed:
   llvm-3.7 @3.7.1_7 (active) requested_variants='' platform='darwin 9'
 archs='ppc64' date='2022-03-06T09:58:43+0800'
 }}}

 This is arguably better than what I wanted initially, however it looks
 like a real pain if someone starts from scratch (gcc-4.2 won't build
 llvm-3.7).
