Sorry, I still get the same error after doing this:

Is your machine Intel or PowerPC ?

This seems odd to me. I'm running on Intel (and Mac OS X 10.4.9), but it seems to me that the architecture really shouldn't make a difference; I've checked against the PPC Darwin sources online, and there doesn't seem to be a difference between the bsd.*.mk files that are called, and I'd be very surprised if gcc was behaving differently between platforms in this way. Still, it is a possibility, so if you post the output of "sudo -td install libcompat" after cleaning libcompat (or from your original "sudo port -d -v install libcompat" if you still have it), that might help me figure out what's happening.
