 This appears to be a known problem with Leopard's linker, according to
 http://trac.macports.org/wiki/LeopardProblems - so, I created a local
 portfile repository with the following local portfile, and kdiff3 then
 built successfully.

 description         kdiff3 is a file comparing and merging tool.
 long_description    kdiff3 compares two or three input files and shows the
 \
                     differences line by line and character by character.
 It \
                     provides an automatic merge facility and an integrated
 \
                     editor for comfortable solving of merge conflicts. \
                     kdiff3 allows recursive directory comparison and
 merging \
                     as well.

 I would appreciate it if the official Macports port of kdiff3 was updated
 to fix this problem!  Thanks for all of your hard work.
