/var/folders/sr/_cb62lmn0v36cvbz11hjgy7r0000gn doesn’t change, it still creates
a directory and then says it can’t write to it. And I’ve tried a few variations
of this changing group and ownership

Thank you. I had tried deleting the ‘T’ directory but not the parent. I’m not
sure why the same problem didn’t happen again after removing and reinstalling
macports.
I noticed that it used the same temporary directory name again after deleting
the T directory, which seems odd, e.g. it used xcrun_db-eQZtJHV5 again.
