Comment (by aeiouaeiouaeiouaeiouaeiouaeiou):

 Today I finally figured out what's going on. I've spent a lot of pointless
 time downgrading MacPorts versions.

 Thanks to ticket #47727, I decided to execute the command specified there
 at the moment of the hang:

 {{{cctools +xcode}}} was used in the system, while the {{{+llvm37}}}
 variant is used on buildbots. After resetting to the default variant,
 {{{objdump}}} stopped hanging.
