I guess that Mojca means that there will probably be less issues with Qt5 ports in general if we forced the use of libc++ across the board. > We want to move the matter of determining that an error condition exists > from the portfiles and portgroups to MacPorts base.

I don't think you can expect ports to know that without being able to include the PortGroups they require. So even if the fundamental mechanism is part of the base layer the error could still be determined in a PortGroup. And I think it'd make sense if the cxx11 portgroup raised the "don't build" signal if it detects a host that doesn't have libc++ installed.
