bibledit @4.8: cannot pass non-POD object of type 'const_reference' to variadic function

[acurtis.preacher@…]

I recently tried to install Bibledit on Mac OS X (10.10 Yosemite). I have Xcode and the command line tools installed, along with several other gtk tools, evertything I *should* need to install the program. I tried the "sudo port install bibledit" command from the docs found in the .tar.gz file from "​http://download-mirror.savannah.gnu.org/releases//bibledit/source/gtk/". I got:

Error: org.macports.build for port bibledit returned: command execution failed
Please see the log file for port bibledit for details:
    /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_textproc_bibledit/bibledit/main.log
To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
    http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
Error: Processing of port bibledit failed

Is there anyway to fix the problem?

Here is the main.log indicated in the error report.

The relevant error seems to be:

This seems like a programming error in bibledit. It should be reported to the developers of bibledit so that they can correct it.
