Comment (by Dave-Allured):
The current HDF5 build system supports building the core C API without
components. However, it does not support building any of the wrapper
API's as stand-alone. I can think of several ways to do this for
MacPorts.
1. Wait for upstream to add component capability to their build system.
It looks like this might take a while.
2. Patch the current build system to enable building, for example, the
fortran API on top of a previous core C API build. The configuration
dependency issues may be complicated.
3. Following a previous core C API build, make another build for core
plus fortran, for example. Then install only the fortran libs and include
files; in effect throwing away the files from the second core build. This
may be easier than (2).
