It's possible that the problem will go away if you uninstall clang-3.4

I tried variations on that (deactivate and/or uninstall 3.4, 5, and 6 in various combos) but every time I tested it something would pull in 3.4 and bootstrap packages.

At present, the configuration of the cmake port makes it impossible to get rid of clang-3.4.

So I've synched to the port tree with your fix from last night and am in the middle of a massive rebuild, surrendering to my fate of rebuilding 3.4 and all the bootstrap packages with a clang-8 and tools that are all the products of past builds using libc++.

The ultimate "solution" was to re-run the LibcxxOnOlderSystems process with minor shortcuts, e.g. no global deactivation and rebuild since my existing ports had all been built with libc++. I did end up doing most of a global rebuild as a result of a precautionary 'upgrade --force' of clang-8.0 (so it would build itself with itself) which resulted in rebuilding a thoroughly absurd dependency tree.
