py-wxpython build failure

[Kevin Horton]

I'm a new MacPorts user with my first build failure.  I'm running OS  
X 10.4.8 on a G4. I believe I have the latest XCode:

% gcc --version
powerpc-apple-darwin8-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc.  
build 5367)

I did a port selfupdate today, then a port install py-wxpython.  It  
failed like:

Error: Target com.apple.build returned: shell command "cd "/opt/local/ 
var/db/dports/build/ 
_Volumes_Maxtor_300_opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.darwinpo

============================

I repeated again with port -v install py-wxpython, and noted that  
there may be signs that it thinks it is building for 10.3.  There is  
also a strange cc1plus: warning buried in there:

cc1plus: warning: command line option "-Wstrict-prototypes" is valid  
for C/ObjC but not for C++

   If you require this configuration, please install the desired
   library build.  If this is part of an automated configuration

   You may use wx-config --list to see all configs available in
   the default prefix.

What other info will help troubleshooting?
