 In the output, the line
 {{{
 DEBUG: Executing variant darwin_8_powerpc provides darwin_8_powerpc
 }}}
 means that the variant darwin_8_powerpc was selected. If you didn't
 request it in your "port install" command, is it perhaps listed in your
 /opt/local/etc/macports/variants.conf?

 If you look at the other ports you have installed, are any of them using a
 powerpc variant too? Try
 {{{
 port installed | grep powerpc
 }}}
 to see.

 > but then, based on your suggestion, I tried specifying the architecture
 by hand (+darwin_8_i386) and this time it managed to pass the
 configuration step, and even most of the compilation. However, it faltered
 once again during linking with... libgmp.
 That's bug #19747.
