Using MacPorts gcc14 (stdio.h trouble error: unknown type name 'FILE)

[Chris Jones]

Hi,

If you are having issues with building a particular port from source.

1. Check for open trac tickets that cover your issue

https://trac.macports.org/

2. If one does not exist, open a ticket and be sure to attach a 
*complete* build log from the *clean* build attempt.
