Comment (by cal@…):

 Your active selected gcc does not affect the compiler used by MacPorts to
 build stuff. If it did that would significantly increase the support
 burden for us because builds would no longer be easy to reproduce. The
 select mechanism is purely for your own convenience. In fact, depending on
 a selection is considered a bug in a port.

 The default compiler should work, and if it doesn't we should blacklist it
 so a better compiler gets used automatically. However, we'd have to know
 '''why''' this fails in the first place. We need to logfile to debug that,
 so please run:

 {{{
 sudo port clean openssh
 sudo port destroot openssh
 }}}
 This will not affect your currently installed openssh, but it will attempt
 to build openssh, and should fail as before. Once it did fail, attach the
 log file mentioned in the error message.
