boost fails to build on Mac OS X Lion — at Version 2

Reported by: RobK88 Owned by: michaelld (Michael Dickens)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.6.1
Keywords: lion Cc: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)
Port: boost

Description (last modified by RobK88)

I am unable to build boost on my old Mac running Lion. Macports is configured to use libc++. 

--->  Computing dependencies for boost
--->  Configuring boost
--->  Building boost
Error: Failed to build boost: command execution failed
Error: See /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_boost/boost/main.log for details.
Error: rev-upgrade failed: Error rebuilding boost
Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets to report a bug.

I have also tried to upgrade boost using the following commands without success: 

sudo port clean boost
sudo port upgrade boost configure.compiler=clang

I finally ran the following upgrade command with the verbose option: sudo port -v upgrade boost configure.compiler=clang

Attached please find the output of the command. I also have attached the main.log file.

P.S. As recommended, I have removed the default.compilers line from macports.conf for Macports 2.6.x
