ldas-tools @2.4.2_1: error: all paths through this function will call itself [-Werror,-Winfinite-recursion]

I am trying to install LAL suite (​​https://wiki.ligo.org/viewauth/DASWG/MacPorts) on OS X EI Captain (version: 10.11.4).

However, I couldn't install the "ldas-tools" in this suite. I ran "sudo port clean ldas-tools" and "sudo port install ldas-tools". Then I received the following:

In the main.log, I found the following error:

:info:build In file included from FrDetector3.cc:1:

By the way, my Xcode version is 7.3.1

Has duplicate #51608.

First thing I would try is updating the port to 2.5.0; see #51609.
