Ok, I did selfupdate Macports and tried again, and indeed it now gets past this hurdle.
However, at the end it tells me that all compilers are blacklisted & it will default to first fall-back option (whatever that is)_. It then wants to install clang 5.0 and llvm 5.0, at which time I said "no" and let the thing terminate. I really don't want to install another compiler. I have gcc up to 7 and I don't think clang works particularly well with Snow Leo. (I also don't think clang 5 would build on Snow Leo). Tracking this down a little further, it seems that qscintilla-qt4 is unhappy with my compilers. Trying to install it separately using macport's gcc-6 bombs as gcc-6 does not seem to understand a flag like -Xarch=64 (or something like this; the log file got clobbered since). Looking into the portfile for qscintilla-qt4, but I cannot see where it blacklists compilers. Does anyone know how to comple scintilla-qt4 using gcc? Seems hard to believe this does not work (the same install worked beautifully on a Raspberry Pi not long ago).
