Boost 1.47 won't compile when the 'go' port is installed

[akimd (Akim Demaille)]

On neither this machine (Lion), nor the other at work (Snow Leopard) the Boost 1.47 package manages to complete its compilation. Actually, it doesn't even finish its bootstrap:

akim@padam ..ts_devel_boost/boost/work/boost_1_47_0 $ pwd                                                      13:50:18

akim@padam ..ts_devel_boost/boost/work/boost_1_47_0 $ cat bootstrap.log                                        13:50:21

I had not looked into the details on the SL machine, of course the error can be different.

Cheers!

Actually, having a better look I see that I have 1.47.0_0 that was already installed, it is 1.47.0_2 that does not build.

Bummer, and now for something completely different... I can't build the gmake package for the same reasons:

Maybe llvm-gcc-4.2 is not a good choice, but I didn't ask for it.

It's a conflict with the 'go' port. Uninstall or deactivate that before trying to build boost. See #30203 which is the same problem with the gmake port.
