I'm not so sure that's the solution for MacPorts either, but I pasted it 
more due to the same errors during configuration rather than the 
solution. Other solutions I've seen is the libraries being compiled for 
32bit and gcc expecting 64bit versions, however I don't think that is 
the case here as I've opted for pure 64bit (ppc64).
