I'm not sure if that's feasible. For 61842 it was not, because the errors
were in code auto-generated by lexx/yacc/bison, and I didn't see any way
of manipulating that process. In this case it may be that the code is
explicitly in opendx, and may be possible to fix at least in principle,
but it's a huge code base, and there could easily be hundreds of
instances.
I'll take a deeper look, but given that this is an ancient code that's
years (decades?) past any development or support, would it not be
acceptable (within macports) to add compiler options to the Portfile to
make them behave the way the OpenDX's developers assumed?
