Comment (by kencu):

 Although this example with the llvm libraries demonstrates the issue,
 probably by using the newest/greatest,  I believe a similar thing can
 happen with any software.

 BTW, I'm sure you know, up until I changed it, the clang-N ports just
 ditto copied the new headers from libc++. I removed that when I started
 installing libc++ instead. So all macports-clang-N installations always
 use the headers that match that libc++ version:
