In the future, please use WikiFormatting, fill in the Port field and Cc the port maintainer(s).

[eborisch (Eric A. Borisch)]

This looks just like #36654. What does port echo active and clang-3.1 report? (It builds fine on my SL box with clang-3.1 @3.1_6+analyzer+python27.)

You are otherwise up-to-date?

[amadeus24]

Cleaned the whole distro and tried again, with same result. Yes, everything else is up-to-date, Xcode and macports tree.

[amadeus24]

Sorry, the output of echo is:

507 -> port echo active and clang-3.1

clang-3.1 @3.1_6+analyzer+python27

[eborisch (Eric A. Borisch)]

This appears to be due to the ld64 update in r99185. It links just fine with the r98868, but crashes with the new one (commit message: "cctools*, ld64: Update to XCode 4.5 version") .... just like it won't build against the new clang (and associated ld) in ML in #36654.

You can either downgrade ld64, or compile a different variant.

[amadeus24]

This isn't a good bypass. Other variants doesn't work and downgrading ld64 cause problems with other packages.

Please attach the crash log.

[amadeus24]

main.log 2012-16-December

[amadeus24]

Install of other variants are not accepted by mpich2, because of conflicts with clang31.
Finally I have again the primarily environment, so I can just attach the actual main.log, which was created today.
All other ports are up2date.

[jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)]

Please attach the *crash* log.

[jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)]

Actually, attach it to #36654.
