Is this anything known?

Okay, same issue as #61170

[fhgwright (Fred Wright)]

Given that v3.4.6_1 successfully builds in this case, this issue is presumably resolved.

See: ​https://trac.macports.org/ticket/69380#comment:30

Someone with access should close this.

I cannot test at the moment, should be able to in about a week.

I suggest keeping this until then, though I believe it should be fixed.
