gnumeric build stopped at py25-libxml2

[macports@…]

I tried building gnumeric from a fresh and updated Macports. It first stopped at py25-hashlib (see Ticket #15607). Then it stopped at py25-libxml2:

I forgot to mention that this is running on a Macbook Pro 2ghz with Leopard 10.5.3.

With the workarounds in #15607, #15608 (this issue), #15609 and #15612, gnumeric finally built and installed successfully.
