Comment (by daiyu.hurst@…):

 Hi Ryan,

 I'm working with the pre-built images that Apple provides here:

 http://opensource.apple.com/static/iso/

 Since they've not seen fit to release a later version of Darwin, and
 building one myself would be a larger meta-task than is justified by the
 task at hand, I'm cobbling together just what I need to do the job.

 I played with each of the images, but settled on the latest available:

 http://opensource.apple.com/static/iso/darwinx86-801.iso.gz

 This image comes with no X, but does have gcc 3.3, gcc 3.3 "fast", gcc
 3.5, and gcc 4.0.

 Then I downloaded MacPorts 1.60 and built & installed it, sync'd, followed
 by 1.8.2 & another sync. Next, I installed XFree86, having read ticket
 #22067 dealing with this. After that, I downloaded, built, and installed
 MacPorts 1.9.2, and sync'd. I installed the gcc_select port at this point.
 Following that, I downloaded, built, and installed MacPorts 2.0.3 using
 gcc 4.0.

 Here I'll mention I usually keep gcc 3.3 the default compiler unless I
 have something fail to compile. I have little experience with gcc since
 2.95, and 4.0 is just kinda terra incognita. With MacPort 2.0.3 installed,
 I changed the default compiler selection back to 3.3, and installed the
 wget port.

 Although I've used computers since they were powered by steam, and love
 old stuff, I had no intention of using X windows by itself, I just needed
 it in place to add a nice gui, gnome 2 or later.

 The gnome install attempt failed, so I downloaded, built, and installed
 MacPorts 2.0.4, and still got no love. The jump then from 2.0.4 to 2.10
 was where I began encountering this problem with the checksums, which
 persist with 2.1.2.

 So, if you'd prefer to close this and move on, no harm-no foul; but if
 you're puzzled enough by it to proceed, I'll send you any additional
 attachments you'd like, and I have another drive that I can wipe and do
 this entire process on again if need be.
