    initial v1  
    11I just went through the LibcxxOnOlderSystems instructions from the start on a pristine 10.6.8 VM running the current MacPorts. It worked successfully, and I have a complete libcxx system with clang-3.7, a current cctools, a current ld64-latest, and all the supporting software.

This is a new feature of MacPorts that didn't exist when the LibcxxOnOlderSystems instructions were written. I would suggest you do NOT do this along the way. Instead, do the following:
