ragel 6.7 fails to link universal

[drbacher@…]

The ragel 6.7 port fails to link the universal variant when using the llvm-gcc-4.2 compiler.

port install ragel configure.compiler=llvm-gcc-4.2

fails with the following errors for all object files:

ignoring file ..., file was built for unsupported file format which is not the architecture being linked (i386)

The link succeeds if the universal variant is removed:

port install ragel configure.compiler=llvm-gcc-4.2 -universal

ragel main.log built with llvm-gcc-4.2

It's not compiler-specific (nor universal-specific; it would affect users trying to do a non-default-build_arch build as well). This software simply does not respect the CFLAGS/LDFLAGS we're setting and will need to be fixed.

P.S: Remember to Cc the maintainer of the affected port so they see your tickets and can begin to work on them.

Replying to ryandesign@…:

Thanks for the pointer. It looks like the configure script blindly resets CXXFLAGS to -g. I've attached a simple patch that fixes the build for me.
