Description
The new version of m4 (1.4.8b_1) installs a file /opt/local/lib/charset.alias whose effect is to regard any charset as UTF-8. The consequence is that when LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO8859-1 and LC_MESSAGES=fr_FR.ISO8859-1 are used, messages (from any program) are displayed as if the encoding were UTF-8. Reverting to m4 1.4.4_0 solves the problem (as no charset.alias file is distributed with this version).
Severity set to Serious as this affects programs unrelated to m4.

The charset.alias file is still there. I think you forgot to increase the revision.

I've updated this port in r28885, so we can close this ticket.

that file seems to be quite the trouble-causer.
$port cat all | grep -c "\${destroot}/\${prefix}/lib/charset.alias" 16in all of those port it's deleted in the post-destroot phase
