Comment (by ryandesign):
Ah, no need for a log; I can see why this happens by reading the Portfile
code.
john uses a custom Makefile and the Portfile sets `build.target` to
"clean" (this is weird but the build instructions for john say to do
this), and then appends another target depending on the architecture, but
there are only cases for ppc, ppc64, i386, and x86_64. There is no case
for arm64, so on arm64, the only target that gets used is "clean", which
of course succeeds at cleaning the project.
john-jumbo uses an autotools build and the Portfile sets `build.target` to
"default" so this problem does not happen there.
