Comment:

 The port contains this code, so the choice of clang-11-bootstrap on i386
 macOS seems deliberate:

 {{{#!tcl
 # https://github.com/macports/macports-
 ports/pull/26250#issuecomment-2437709579
 # OpenSSL 3.4.0 implements new intrinsic code that increases compiler
 # requirements. We can only use bootstrap Clang because the newer
 # one depends on openssl by default and causes a dependency cycle.
 if {${os.platform} eq "darwin" && ${os.major} < 18} {
     if {${configure.build_arch} in {"x86_64" "i386"}} {
         depends_build-append port:clang-11-bootstrap
         depends_skip_archcheck-append clang-11-bootstrap
         configure.cc ${prefix}/libexec/clang-11-bootstrap/bin/clang
         configure.cxx ${prefix}/libexec/clang-11-bootstrap/bin/clang++
         # https://trac.macports.org/ticket/71201
         # https://trac.macports.org/ticket/71246
         # cctools is only needed for Snow Leopard i386/x86_64 and older.
         # On Yosemite and newer systems it triggers the dependency cycle
 again.
         if {${os.major} < 11} {
             depends_build-append port:cctools
         }
     }
 }
 }}}

 Why do you believe this compiler choice is incorrect? Do you encounter
 build failure? If so please attach the main.log file.
